OPERATOR’S MAN U AL
IMPORTANT: The total weight of the load must never
exceed the weight of cargo listed on the tire label
and/or the maximum load carrying capacity listed
on the VIN tag on your trailer. The GVWR (Gross
Vehicle Weight Rating) listed is the maximum total
weight of the trailer with accessories and all cargo
allowable to be carried on the tires that are installed
on the trailer.
WARNING: Fishtailing caused from improper tongue
weight on the tow vehicle hitch ball can cause loss
of control of the tow vehicle and resulting serious
injury or property damage.
CAUTION: The maximum load applied to the trailer
must never exceed the carrying capacity of the
trailer as stated on the VIN label and/or the tire
placard. Doing so may cause failure of one or more
component parts of the trailer causing potential
damage to the trailer and/ or a potential accident.
All concentrated loads must be spread over as large
an area as possible to eliminate potential damage
to the decking.
Shown below is an example of the tire label that is placed
on your trailer showing the items just discussed above.
Once you have familiarized yourself with the information
supplied on the ex ample tire label and VIN tag, check
the tire size and capacity of your trailer as shown on
the VIN tag on your trailer.
Proper Weight Distribution & Tongue
Weight
Ensuring that your trailer has the proper GVWR is
very important. Once that has been established and
you have the load on the trailer it is equally important
that you have proper weight distribution.
Tongue Weight
The tongue weight on your trailer is 10%-15% of
the total weight of the trailer and all the cargo that it
is carrying. This is the amount of weight that is then
transferred to the tow vehicle through the ball hitch.
Example: The total weight of the trailer with load is
2500 pounds. The tongue weight should not be less
than 250 pounds (10%).
Too light of tongue weight can cause the trailer to
“fi shtail” (sway Weight Rating) as you travel down the
highway. This creates excessive strains on the tow
vehicle, hitch and on the trailer itself. It can very easily
lead to an accident.
To adjust for too light of a tongue weight the load must
be shifted for ward with respect to the axle. This will
increase the weight that is transferred to the tongue.
Adjustments should be made until the tongue weight
falls within 10% -15% recommended range. Likewise,
if you have too much tongue weight adjust the weight
backwards with respect to the axle until the tongue
weight falls in the recommended range
Tow vehicles vary on how much tongue weight they
can support for proper towing.
Tire Pressure
Proper air pressure for your tires is printed on the
sidewall. Check pressure while tires are cold. Do not
raise or lower pressure to meet load. Pressure other
than recommended pressure will lead to excessive tire
wear or tire failure. Balancing recommended.
Wheels
Check wheels for hole elongation
or “out of round”. This condition
can be caused by lug nuts not be-
ing tight or being too tight. Trailer
wheels can be damaged by chuck
holes or curb jumping. You may
not be aware of the road shock to
the wheels without periodic checks. Replace any wheel
that is bent. Replace any wheel if you see elongation
of the bolt holes.
Wheel Lugs
Wheel lug nuts must be tightened with a torque wrench.
Refer to the chart below for proper torque.
1. Start all bolts or nuts by hand to prevent cross
threading.
2. Tighten bolts or nuts following sequence at right.
3. The tightening of the fasteners should be done in
stages. Following the recommended sequence,
tighten fasteners per wheel torque chart below.
4. Wheel nuts/bolts should be torqued before fi rst
road use and after each wheel removal. Check and
re-torque after the fi rst 10 miles, 25 miles and again
at 50 miles. Check periodically thereafter.
