Craftsman 0220 - Manual (Page 8)


The proper tightness (torque) for lug nuts is 95-120 ft./lb. Do not exceed 120 ft./lb.
Use a torque wrench to tighten the lug nuts. If you do not have a torque wrench, use
a lug wrench (from your tow vehicle) and tighten the nuts as much as you can. Then
have a service garage or trailer dealer tighten the lug nuts to the proper torque. See
the section on Tire and Safety Information for more details concerning tire safety.
Lug nuts are also prone to loosen after first being assembled. When driving a new
trailer (or after wheels have been remounted), check to make sure they are tight after
the first 10, 25 and 50 miles of driving and before each tow thereafter.
Failure to perform this check can result in a wheel parting from the trailer and a crash,
leading to death or serious injury.

Ensure the trailer gates are secure during towing. Failure to
insert gates securely could result in the load separating from
the trailer causing serious property damage, personal injury
and death.
