REAR BUMPER SPARE TIRE CARRIER
The optional spare tire for your unit is mounted on the rear
bumper. 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.
To extend the tire down
1. Remove the cotter key from the pin holding the tire carrier
in place. (Fig. 29)
2. Remove the pin and extend the tire
carrier away from the trailer.
3. Always return the tire carrier to the
upright position and lock it in place
while traveling.
To remove the tire from the tire carrier
1. Remove the lug nuts holding the
tire in place.
2. Remove the support bracket from
the bottom lug. (Fig. 30)
3. Pull the tire from the tire carrier.
To install the tire on the tire carrier
1. Place the tire on the tire carrier
with the top lug bolt inserted into
one of the holes in the tire rim and
the bottom lug bolt in the center of
the rim.
2. Install the top lug nut. (Fig. 30)
3. Place the support bracket over the
bottom lug bolt across the center of the rim.
4. Install the bottom lug nut over the support bracket.
5. Make sure the lug nuts are tightened securely before returning to travel.
Tire Covers - Vinyl (Option)
Your tires are manufactured with components that cause "bleeding" onto the tire cover. To
prevent this, it is recommended to use a separator (garbage bag, paper, cloth, etc.) between
the tire and the cover.
CLEARANCE LIGHTS
Inspect all exterior lights to make sure they do not have moisture trapped inside. The
"weep" holes at the bottom of the lights must be kept open to allow moisture to escape from
the light fixture.
