Trailering Your Boat - Supra Sunsport 22V Owner's Manual

Trailer & Towing
The trailer supplied with your Supra was designed especially
for the boat with your convenience in mind. Please be sure
that you have an appropriate tow vehicle before attempting
to trailer your boat. Your vehicle must be capable of towing
5,000 lbs. and must be fitted with no less than a Class III (5,000
lb. max.) trailer hitch.
Read the trailer towing section of your vehicle owner's
manual before towing your trailer.
All Supra trailers require a 2" ball and a five (5) pin marine grade
trailer wiring connector. The standard height from the ground
to the top of the hitch ball should be about 20 inches. With
the trailer attached to the tow vehicle, the trailer should stand
approximately level.

NOTE: Supra trailers feature disk brakes. The th wire
(blue) on the wire connector needs to be connected to your
vehicle's reverse lights to be operative. This wire (blue)
provides power to a solenoid which deactivates the brakes
while in reverse. You may still tow your trailer without the
blue wire connected, however, you may experience difficulty
backing the trailer.

Prolong Trailer Life
The following guidelines will prolong the life of the boat
and trailer:
1. Always secure the boat to the trailer with tie-downs. Do not
place straps around fenders or lights.
2. Always verify that the winch hook is securely in the bow
eye, the strap is tight and the winch handle locked in place
before trailering.
3. Check the recommended pressure displayed on the side of
the tires and assure that it is maintained. Under-inflated tires
could cause trailer sway and excessive tire wear.
4. Before use, please read all information supplied with the
trailer by the manufacturer (Bearing Buddy, Boat Buddy and
hydraulic brake actuator). Check wheel bearing grease.
5. Before operating Boat Buddy, check trigger setting and latch
pin location. After loading, check latch pin and confirm that
it is properly seated in the eye hook before pulling trailer
out of water. Wash Boat Buddy moving parts with high
pressure water.
6. Check wheel bearing lube.
7. See Trailer Owner's Manual for Maintenance Schedule.
Inadvertent release of latch pin could result in injury.
