Attaching A Trailer - Snapper 285Z Operator's Manual

Operation

Attaching a Trailer

The maximum weight of a towed trailer should be less than 200
lbs (91kg). Secure the trailer with an appropriately sized clevis
pin (A, Figure 9) and clip (B).
Excessive towed loads can cause loss of traction and loss of
control on slopes. Reduce towed weight when operating on
slopes. The surface being driven on greatly impacts traction
and stability. Wet or slippery surfaces can greatly reduce
traction and the ability to stop or turn. Carefully evaluate the
surface conditions before operating the unit and trailer, and
never operate on slopes greater than 10°. See PROTECTION
AGAINST TIPOVERS and TOWING in the safety section of this
manual for additional safety information.
