  • Page 17 Congratulations on your new Malone trailer! Take a couple minutes to read through this manual for commonly asked questions and some basic trailer maintenance that will ensure your trailer is preforming at its best. And as always please free to contact us with any questions you may have.
  • Page 19 Some trailers now have an integrated ‘zerk’ on the backside of the hub. For the customer it means they can do periodic grease “freshenings” without disassembly of the hubs. Procedure for hub with integrated zerk fitting: Prepare a disposable container for the old grease to fall into. Remove the wheel and dust cap.
  • Page 20 Adding your own Zerk fitting to avoid the previous steps above: You can add your own zerk fitting to the front of your hub by adding a Bearing Buddy ® Protector. Look for Model# 1980A and follow the manufactures instructions for use. Type of grease to use: Automotive bearing grease is OK in a pinch, marine wheel-bearing grease is better, and synthetic marine-wheel bearing grease is best.
  • Page 21 Damaged Bearings? Replace them right away. Continued Procedure: Continued Install the grease seal. Don’t hammer directly on the seal. Use a block of wood. Take care to drive the seal in straight. Seal should be flush to the outside surface of the hub. Fill the hub, in behind the seal, with grease then slide the hub over the spindle being careful not to damage the seal against the spindle.
  • Page 22 Towing Speeds/Tips: The hubs on your trailer are already fulled packed with a high-speed, high-temp grease, safely tow at any posted speed limit. Including highway speeds. allowing you to You need to allow for extra time and room when switching lanes, stopping, and passing other vehicles when towing a trailer.
  • Page 23 Electrical/Lighting Properly functioning trailer lights are a must for safety, so check your lights every time you use your trailer. Some problems, such as a burned-out bulb or a bad ground wire, can be a snap to fix—others can be a real pain to diagnose and repair. Wiring Diagram For Trailer Lights Trailer Wiring Assembly Note: Wiring colors are the same from incandescent lights and LED light kits.
  • Page 24 Electrical/Lighting Continued We can’t cover every scenario in this manual but here’s some trouble shooting we can do to help get your trailer back in top condition. Having a helper standing behind the vehicle to see if the lights are working will make the process go a lot quicker..and save you from running back and forth.
