Step 1 - Unpacking
Before you begin installation, read all instructions
thoroughly. Remove all the parts from packaging and
review the parts list to ensure you have all components.
While supporting the tow bar shank pull
both arms upward 90° and rotate arms 90°.
Step 2 - Installation
Insert the tow bar shank (#1) into the receiver hitch tube of the
towing vehicle and secure with the provided pin and clip (#3).
Note: There are two pin positions on the tow bar shank, it is
recommended to use the shortest position when possible.
Rotate the arms out of the storage position into the towing
position. Make sure the latch housings are facing upward.
Note: If necessary, review the 'Storage Positions' on page 6.
