2. Begin to stabilize the trailer by placing a wheel chock (2 supplied) behind
each trailer wheel (figure 6).
!WARNING: Load must be distributed evenly before unhitching
trailer. Failure to do so may cause the trailer tongue to flip upward
causing severe personal injury.
3. Remove trailer from tow vehicle. The trailer should be in position for cable
pulling at this time (section 4). Use an adjustable jack on the front frame
jack mount to lift the trailer from the tow vehicle (figure 7). Place jack in
jack mount as described in section 5A-1 and then disconnect ball hitch or
other hitch mechanism. Then lift trailer from tow vehicle by using the crank.
Raise no more than necessary to clear tow vehicle.
4. One jack will remain on the tongue of the trailer. Place the last two jacks at
the rear corners of the trailer. Placement of rear jacks is critical to avoid
getting in the way of the pulling equipment. Note that there are two jack
mounts provided at each rear corner (figure 8).
5. Level the trailer by using the crank handles on the jacks. Raise and lower
each jack to provide a level surface for the cable pulling equipment.
