BEFORE GETTING UNDERWAY

Attaching the Trailer to the
Tow Vehicle
1. Make sure that the coupler and hitch
ball are the same size (2 in).
2. Have someone guiding you and
back the tow vehicle as close as
possible to the trailer. This is easier
and safer than pulling the trailer to
the vehicle.
3. Be sure the coupler-locking mecha-
nism is released.
4. Raise the front end of the trailer. Po-
sition the coupler directly over the
hitch ball and lower until it is all the
way down.
