Important Safety Instructions
IMPORTANT: Read this manual before
using this product. Keep this
manual in a safe location
for future reference.
Failure to follow the
instructions and safety
precautions in this manual
can result in equipment
failure which, if not avoided,
could result in death or
serious injury.
For rigid trailer tongue, maintain adequate
vertical (tongue) load to adequately control
the trailer (generally 10% of the gross vehicle
weight) but do not exceed the capacity ratings
listed in Section 2, page 6.
The equipment listed in this manual must not
be used or maintained in a careless manner.
During Operation:
1. Be sure that the drawbar eye is compatible
with the coupling device on the tow vehicle.
2. Be particularly careful during coupling
and uncoupling.
3. Inspect the coupling device on the tow
vehicle for proper operation. DO NOT
use any coupling device that does not
operate properly.
4. Other steps and inspections are also
required. Consult local, regional, or
national regulations for complete coupling
and uncoupling procedures. These
cover items such as cargo securement,
brakes, lights, safety chains, and other
important requirements.
General Information:
1. DO NOT modify or add to these products.
DO NOT hit steel parts with
a steel hammer as parts could
break, sending flying steel
fragments in any direction
creating a hazard which, if
not avoided, could result in
minor to moderate injury.
2. DO NOT weld on these products.
3. All mounting torque specifications listed
in this manual are based on zinc plated
Grade 8 fasteners in dry applications.
For any other application see the bolt
manufacturer’s recommendations.
IMPORTANT: Bolts must be long enough
to provide a minimum of
two (2) full thread lengths
beyond the end of the nut.
Failure to use long enough
bolts for mounting the coupler
could result in vehicle and
trailer separation which, if
not avoided, could result in
death or serious injury.
NOTE: In this manual, all descriptions
of orientation are relative to the
vehicle, see image below.
