Raising and lowering the hoist

In most cases the crank handle to raise and lower the tire will be
located in a basement compartment of the recreation vehicle.
Typically, it is fastened to the sidewall of the compartment. Insert the
crank handle into the crank access port located either in the center of
the rear bumper, or in the sidewall of the RV. Turn the crank handle
to lower the tire, or to lift into the travel position. Two "crisp breaks"
must be heard and felt to insure the proper seating of the tire for travel.
NOTE: If the manual crank access port is located in a slideout, the
slideout room must be in the travel position. If the slideout is extended the crank will not
reach the mechanism to raise or lower the tire.

Securing the spare tire

To secure the spare tire in the travel position, put the steel hoist lift support located on the
end of the cable through the rim of the tire. The hoist lift support clips need to seat inside
the center hole of the tire rim. The valve stem of the tire MUST be pointed in the up
position or toward the bottom of the RV. Reverse this process to release the spare tire for
usage.

Bumper mount

The spare tire bracket can be released and extended down to access a storage compartment
at the rear of the trailer without removing the tire.

in place.

it in place while traveling.
To remove the tire from the tire carrier
