Before driving:
Raise the support wheel – Ensure the support wheel is fully raised before driving.
Check the trailer coupler – Make sure the coupler has clicked firmly into place on the towbar.
Test the power connection – Verify that the power cord is functioning properly so that the turn signals and brake lights work correctly.
Adjust your driving style – The vehicle will be significantly longer with a trailer attached, so allow extra space for turns and braking.
Monitor the load weight – Avoid overloading the trailer to ensure safe handling and compliance with weight limits.
When launching the boat:
Remove the light ramp – If the trailer has a light ramp at the back, remove it before backing into the water.
Safety precautions:
Check the breakaway cable – Ensure the trailer’s breakaway cable is not too long, as it could drag on the ground.
Release the trailer brake – If the trailer has brakes, make sure to release them before driving.
Lock the trailer – When leaving the trailer unattended, always secure it with a lock.
