Incorrect procedures could result in death, injury, or property damage.
Learn to use equipment correctly.
To help avoid injury:
• Read trailer operator’s manual before loading or transporting your machine. Incorrectly loaded
machine can slip or cause trailer sway.
• Ensure that tow vehicle has proper tow capacity rating.
• Attach trailer to tow vehicle before loading or unloading.
• Park, load, and unload trailer on level ground.
• Check that unit and trailer do not exceed size or weight regulations.
• Load trailer correctly to avoid trailer swaying. Ten to fifteen percent of total vehicle weight
(equipment plus trailer) must be on tongue to help prevent trailer sway.
• Connect safety chains to tow vehicle. Attach left chain to right side of tow vehicle and vice versa to
cradle hitch. Do not connect to pintle hook or hitch ball.
• Connect breakaway switch cable to tow vehicle. Do not connect to pintle hook or hitch ball.
