All four side panel hold-downs must be snapped in place before using the
trailer. Otherwise, the side rails can shift or collapse, resulting in the loss of cargo.
Installing the Tailgate and Splashguard
Nomad
: Thread the rear tie-down straps through the inner and then outer
slots of the male buckle sections of the rear side release buckles, which
are attached to the female buckle
sections on the inside rear of the
side panels. Allow enough slack so
you can loop the webbing straps
over the rear of the side panels. To
attach the front splashguard to the
front of the side panels, repeat this
step using the front tie-down straps
and the front side release buckles.
To accommodate different sizes of
cargo, tighten or loosen the web-
bing straps as required (see illus-
tration).
Installing the Roll Bar
and Cover
Nomad
: Place the cover, right side out, over the side rails with the
"Nomad" logo at the front of the trailer. Slip a roll bar knob through one of

the grommets on the cover. Slide the
roll bar through the casing in the top
of the mesh divider. Align one end
of the roll bar with its corresponding
hole on the side rail. Thread the
roll bar knob through one side rail,
and tighten it into the roll bar (see
illustration). Repeat this step for the
roll bar knob on the other side. Pull
the B-tabs down and loop the rubber
O-rings over the trailer frame. Make
sure the cover extends over the top
of each side panel.
Installing the Tongue for
the Nomad
Tip the trailer onto its back end.
Slide the tongue onto the pivot
pin at the left front. Remove
the hairpin cotter and lock pin
from the front tongue receptacle,
rotate the tongue up into place,
and snap it into the two plastic
tongue receptacles. Push the lock
pin fully into the front tongue
receptacle. Rotate the lock pin
and locate the hole in it, between
B-tab
the receptacle and the trailer
frame. Anchor the lock pin by
inserting the hairpin cotter all the
way into the hole in the lock pin.
Never operate the Nomad
cotter locked in place. An unlocked tongue can loosen or detach and
cause an accident, resulting in serious injury.
Installing the Tongue for the Flatbed
Rotate the tongue up into the plastic tongue
receptacle at the front frame. To lock the
tongue in place, slip the retaining pin
through the hole in the tongue receptacle
and close the pin (see illustration).
The retaining pin must be locked
in place before using the Flatbed
trailer; otherwise, the tongue could
shift and cause an accident and
serious injury.
