For your safety, service and maintenance should be performed regularly by a qualified technician. PRODUCT SPECIFIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 1. Before each use, always examine the trailer (not supplied) for: proper tire air pressure, damaged tail lights, damaged side running lights, loose bolts and nuts, structural cracks, bends, and any other condition that may affect safe operation. Before each use, always attach the safety chains (not supplied) of the trailer to the towing vehicle. Make sure the safety chain is attached to the towing vehicle with the same length for each side. Verify that the payload being transported is properly and safely secured in the trailer. Load the trailer evenly from side to side with 60% of the load forward of the Axle. The towing vehicle must be capable of towing the trailer and its payload. Verify that the towing vehicle hitch (not included) is capable of towing the weight of the trailer and its payload. The towing capacity of the hitch is typically stamped on the Hitch drawbar. Make sure the Ball Coupler and the vehicle's ball hitch (not included) are of equal mating size (see Specifications on page 2), and are rated equal to, or greater than, the weight of the trailer and its payload. Whenever possible, park the trailer on a flat, level, paved, surface and chock both tires to keep the trailer from accidently moving. Industrial applications must follow osha requirements. all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be supplied by the operator. OPERATION 1.

Match up the holes in the side of the Ball Coupler with the holes in the trailer Tongue. If no holes are present, use the Ball coupler as a template, mark the Tongue through the holes and drill. Be certain that the Ball Coupler is well seated on the hitch before marking for drilling. 2. 3. 4. 5. Note: Before drilling, check for hidden wires in the drilling path. If you are not familiar with drilling and mounting the Ball Coupler, have a qualified service technician do it. 3. 6. Acquire two SAE Grade 5 or Metric Grade 8. 8 steel bolts the same diameter as the holes in the Ball Coupler, and 1/2 inch longer that the width of the Ball coupler.
