Timpte Utility Trailers Timpte Utility Trailers are designed specifically for carrying motorized vehicles. It is recommended that wheel tie straps be used to secure the vehicle with the tie straps connected to the embedded tie-down rings. The vehicle must be loaded as far forward on the trailer as possible so the loaded tongue weight is 10% of the total load.
Do not work under the trailer when it is loaded. Before working under the trailer ensure the battery switch is off, the safety latches are engaged and all lifting arms, the tongue, and rear of trailer are safely supported. TIMPTE.com...
