VERSA TRAILER
Removing the Blue Plastic Protective Film and Installing the Dump Bed
Tools Needed:
x Utility Knife
x Protective Goggles or Safety Glasses
x Gloves
x The Bed of the Trailer is very heavy and must be lifted out of the Shipping
Crate and on to the Trailer by at least two adults.
x Always be aware of where your Hands and Feet are positioned as they can be
crushed if you loose your grip while lifting the Bed from the Shipping Crate.
x Never allow children or pets to play around you, the Bed, Shipping Crate, or
Trailer when you are performing these steps.
1. Remove the Bed from the steel-shipping Crate with the assistance of at least
one other person by lifting the Bed straight up, and out of the Crate by the
Tailgates. Make sure all four Latches on the Tailgates are properly latched
(Figure 44) before lifting the Bed out of the Crate and placing it on the
ground.
2. To remove the Blue Plastic Protective Film from the Inside and Outside of
the Bed, use your Fingernail, or the point of a Utility Knife to peel up one
end of the plastic at the edges of the Bed and begin to peel off the Film.
3. With the assistance of at least one other person, turn the Bed over onto its
top, to remove the Blue Plastic Film from the exterior and underside of the
Bed. Use the Utility Knife to cut around the Black Frame of the Trailer for
the individual panels (Figure 45). Once you have cut around the individual
panels, use the point of the Knife to begin peeling at the edge.
4. With the assistance of at least one other person, turn the Bed back over and
place the Bed on the Trailer in the orientation shown in Figure 46, with the
U-Bolt at the front of the Trailer and the Dumping Pivots on the Bed placed
between the Pivot Supports on the Rear Bed Support.
NOTE: It is recommended to lift the Bed from the Sides to walk the Bed onto the
Trailer. It is easier to install the Bed without the Log Cradles and Extensions
inserted into the Frame. These are also unnecessary when the Bed is installed.
5. Align the Holes though the Dumping Pivots on the Bed with the ones on the
Rear Bed Support and install the two Pivot Pins and Hitch Clips (Figure 47
on page 21).
6. Attach the Hook from the Winch to the U-Bolt in the Bed (Figure 48 on page
21).
7. Check and adjust the Tire Pressures to 25-28 PSI prior to use.
