Using the Dump Bed
1. The Dump Bed may be used to haul and dump a number of things from dirt,
rocks, stones and logs, to name a few. To dump material from the Bed of
the Trailer, remove the Rear Tailgate.
NOTE: To remove the Tailgate, release the Latches on the Tailgate by pulling the
Red Handles of the Latches away from the Tailgate (Figure 24). Pivot the
Tailgate down and then push the Tailgate to the Left to uncouple the
Hinges (Figure 25).
2. Once the Tailgate has been removed, remove the Dump Latch Pin and raise
the Bed to dump the material out by grasping under the front of the Bed and
lifting upwards.
NOTE: Over time you may need to adjust your Tailgate Latches. To do so, open the
Latch (Figure 24) and thread the Latching Arm inwards or outwards to
adjust the length of the Latching Arm (Figure 26).
Using the Optional Trailer Jack

towing position.
1. Raise the Jack to the highest position by rotating the Jack Handle
Clockwise.
2. Attach the Trailer to the Tow Vehicle using a 2" Ball. Make sure to properly latch
and lock the Coupler with the Safety Snap Pin.
3. Remove the Hitch Clip and Pin from the Jack Stand Pivot and rotate the
Jack up away from the Swivel Tow Hitch (Figure 27).
4. Reinstall the Pin and Hitch Clip to hold the Jack in the Tow Position.
