• Make sure your 2" Hitch Ball is correctly tightened to the Receiver and that the Receiver is properly connected to your Towing
Vehicle. A loose Ball or Receiver can result in the Trailer detaching from the Tow Vehicle during use.
• A worn, corroded, cracked, or otherwise damaged Hitch Ball can fail while towing. Always inspect your Ball before attaching to
your Trailer.
• Always use a 2" Hitch Ball with your Trailer.
• Never operate your Trailer if the Coupler is not locked and the Safety Snap Pin is not installed.
• When the Trailer's Coupler is connected to the Ball and is in the locked position, rock the Tow Bar up and down as well as side-
to-side to make sure the Ball is tight to the Coupler. A properly fastened and locked Coupler will raise the rear of the Tow
Vehicle when it is pulled upwards without coming off of the Ball.
22. Attach the Trailer to your Tow Vehicle using a 2" Ball, making sure to
properly latch the Coupler, and locking it with the supplied Safety Snap
Pin (Figure 21).
NOTE: You may need to adjust the Coupler prior to installation. Please refer to
Chapter 4: "Maintaining the DR 1/2 TON VERSA TRAILER".
23. CONGRATULATIONS! Your DR 1/2 TON VERSA TRAILER is now ready
to use! See the next Chapter for operating suggestions and tips.
