CAUTION
To avoid accident or injury
■
The total trailer weight (trailer weight plus the weight of cargo) must not exceed
●
6500 lb. (2948 kg).
If a trailer and cargo weigh over 2000 lbs. (900 kg), use a sway control device of
●
sufficient capacity.
If the gross trailer weight is over 5000 lbs. (2268 kg), it is necessary to use a
●
weight distributing hitch with sufficient capacity.
If using a weight distributing hitch when towing, keep your vehicle level with the
●
ground.
The gross combined weight (sum of your vehicle weight plus its load and the total
●
trailer weight) must not exceed 13100 lb. (5492 kg).
Do not exceed the trailer hitch assembly weight, gross vehicle weight, gross axle
●
weight and trailer tongue load capacities.
Never load more weight in the back than in the front of the trailer. About 60 % of
●
the load should be in the front half of the trailer, and the remaining 40 % in the
rear.
The tow hitch receiver installed on your vehicle must never be used on another
●
vehicle.
Do not exceed 45 mph (72 km/h) or the posted towing speed limit, whichever is
●
lower. A instability (swaying) of the towing vehicle-trailer combination increases
as speed increases, exceeding 45 mph (72 km/h) may cause loss of control.
