10.2 Inspection and Service Instructions

10.2.1 Axle bolts, Frame, Suspension, & Structure
Worn or broken suspension parts can cause loss of control and
property damage, serious injury and death may result. Have
trailer professionally inspected annually and after any impact.
To perform many of the inspection and maintenance activities, you must jack up the
trailer.
When jacking and using jack stands, place them so as to clear wiring and suspension
parts (springs, torsion bars, etc.). Place jacks and jack stands inside of the perimeter
strip on the supporting structure to which the axles are attached.
Never crawl under your trailer unless it is on firm and level ground
and resting on properly placed and secured jack stands.
Never attempt to change the tire while trailer is in folded
position. Trailer can tip over.
Failure to heed these warnings could result in property damage,
serious injury and death.
Do not use the Assist Wheel to support the Trailer while
changing your tires. Trailer could tip over causing serious injury
or death.

teners, wear
