EMERGENCY STOP
The unit is equipped with one emergency stop switch. For location of the emergency
stop switch, refer to
"Component
GENCY STOP." The switch can be accessed and activated with all doors closed and
locked.
Activate the emergency stop switch by pushing the button in until it locks down. This
will open the fuel circuit, shutting down the engine. The switch will remain locked until
it is pulled out.
The use of the emergency stop switch in non-emergency situations will lead to equipment
damage. For any other shut down, refer to
TOWING THE UNIT
Once the engine is shut down, follow these steps to prepare the unit for towing.
1. Use the tongue jack to raise or lower the trailer onto the hitch of the towing vehicle. Lock the hitch coupling
and attach the safety chains or cables to the vehicle. Release the jack locking pin and rotate the jack into the
travel position. Make sure the locking pin snaps into place.
Note: A film of grease on the coupler will extend coupler life and eliminate squeaking. Wipe the coupler clean and
apply fresh grease each time the unit is towed.
2. To ensure proper operation of the jacks, lube the grease fittings located on the leveling jacks. Refer to
Maintenance".
For maintenance interval information, refer to
3. Connect any trailer wiring to the tow vehicle. Check for proper operation of the directional and brake lights.
4. Make sure the doors are properly latched.
5. Check for proper inflation of the trailer tires. For maximum tire pressures, refer to "Specifications".
6. Check the wheel lugs. Tighten or replace any lugs that are loose or missing. If
a tire has been removed for axle service or replaced, tighten the lugs, in the
order shown, to the following specifications:
a. Start all lug nuts by hand.
b. First pass tighten to 20-25 ft-lbs (27-33 Nm).
c. Second pass tighten to 50-60 ft-lbs (67-81 Nm).
d. Third pass tighten to 90-120 ft-lbs (122-162 Nm).
Note: After the first road use, re-torque the lug nuts in sequence.
7. Maximum recommended speed for highway towing is 45 mph (72 km/h). Recommended off-road towing
speed is not to exceed 10 mph (16 km/h) or less, depending on the terrain.
