Capacities & Weight Distribution
CARGO WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION
• Trailer load should be centered left to right, and distributed
front to rear to provide adequate tongue weight.
• Maximum cargo capacities are for evenly distributed loads
which place the majority of the cargo's weight directly over
both wheels evenly.
• It is extremely important to never exceed the maximum
cargo weight of 2220 pounds. An overloaded trailer can
result in failure or loss of control of the trailer, leading to a
serious or fatal accident.
SECURING TONGUE JACK
Tongue jack must be properly secured in the travel position
before moving the trailer (see image below). Tongue jack
simplifies coupling and uncoupling to a vehicle. Swivel wheel
enables easy trailer movement by hand. Jack easily clamps to
tongue and pivots up for travel.

TONGUE WEIGHT CAPACITY
• Loads should be placed on the trailer so that proper weight
is applied to the tongue. The tongue weight should be 10%-
15% of cargo load, not to exceed 300 pounds. The tongue
weight can be increased or decreased by moving the load
forward or backward.
• It is extremely important to never exceed the tongue weight
capacity. Overloading the tongue could cause it to bend or
break, which could cause a serious or fatal accident.
