Before performing the next step, assure that you inserted the Dump Bed Pin and installed the Hitch Clip (Figure 8) otherwise the
Tow Bar may swing loose while turning the Trailer over.

11. Install the Wheel with the Valve Stem on the outside of the Wheel. Install the four Lug Nuts with the tapered end facing inward

(Figure 13). Tighten the Lug Nuts using a 5" Socket Extension and a 21mm Socket. The Lug Nuts will be torqued later with the
Wheels on the ground. Repeat for the other side.






12. Grasp the Tow Bar and carefully stand the Trailer on end (Figure 14).

Reposition yourself on the other side of the Trailer and gently lower the
Trailer onto its Wheels.

13. Position a Jack Stand under the Tow Bar and slide the Swivel Tow Hitch

w/Coupler into the end of the Tow Beam (Figure 15) with the Swivel facing
up.

NOTE: If you have purchased the Optional Trailer Jack, install it before installing

the Swivel Tow Hitch. To install the Trailer Jack, loosen the hardware
installed in the Jack, and slide the Jack approximately 12" onto the Tow
Bar with the Mounting Boss facing left. Tighten the Bolt with a 24mm
Socket. Tighten the Jam Nut down against the Boss using a 24mm
Wrench.

14. Install two M10 x 80mm Bolts and Spacers, with the smaller diameter

Shoulder(s) down, (Figure 16) through the Tow Bar and Swivel Tow Hitch.
Install a Flat Washer, Lock Washer, and M10 Lock Nut on each Bolt and
tighten with a 16mm Socket while holding the Nut with a 17mm Wrench.

15. Remove the Blue Plastic Protective Film from the Inside of the Bed. Use

your Fingernail, or the point of a Utility Knife to peel up one end of the
plastic at the edges of the Bed and begin to peel off the Film.
