REMOVING THE LIGHTS FOR TRANSPORTATION

1. Disconnect the power cords from the junction box at the top of the mast. Replace

the dust caps on the junction box.

2. Remove the lights from the mast by removing the wing nut that holds the light

fixture bracket to the cross tube. Insert the lights onto the light storage channel,

located on the inside of each door. Orient the lights so the lenses are facing the

rubber seal on the inside of the door, as shown. Secure the light fixtures with the

wing nuts. Secure the light cords to prevent damage to them.

TOWING THE UNIT

Once the engine is shut down and the mast and lights are properly stowed, follow these steps to prepare the unit

for towing.

1. Raise the rear jack completely and release the locking pin to rotate it up into the travel position. Make sure the

locking pin snaps into place.

2. Raise the outrigger jacks completely and release the jack locking pin to swing the jacks up into the travel position.

Make sure the locking pins snap into place. Release the outrigger locking pins and slide the outriggers into the

trailer frame until the locking pins snap into place.

3. Use the tongue jack to raise or lower the trailer onto the hitch of the towing vehicle. Lock the hitch coupling and

attach the safety chains or cables to the vehicle. Remove the jack locking pin and rotate the jack into the travel

position. Replace the locking pin.

Note: A film of grease on the coupler will extend coupler life and eliminate squeaking. Wipe the coupler clean and

apply fresh grease each time the unit is towed.

4. To ensure proper operation of the jacks, lube the grease fittings located on the leveling jacks. Refer to “Jack

Maintenance” on page 26. For maintenance interval information, refer to Basic Maintenance Schedules beginning

on page 24.

5. Connect any trailer wiring to the tow vehicle. Check for proper operation of the stop and signal lights.

6. Make sure the mast cradle locking pin is in place.

7. Make sure the doors are properly latched.

8. If the unit is going to be driven over rough ground, remove the bulbs from the light fixtures.

9. Check for proper inflation of the trailer tires. Refer to Specifications beginning on page 9.

10. Check the wheel lugs. Tighten or replace any that are loose or missing. If a tire

has been removed for axle service or replaced, tighten the lugs, in the order shown,

to the following specifications:

A. Start all lug nuts by hand.

B. First pass tighten to 20-25 ft-lbs (27-33 Nm).

C. Second pass tighten to 50-60 ft-lbs (67-81 Nm).

D. Third pass tighten to 90-120 ft-lbs (122-162 Nm).

Note: After the first road use, re-torque the lug nuts in sequence.

11. Maximum recommended speed for highway towing is 45 mph (72 km/h). Recommended off-road towing speed

is not to exceed 10 mph (16 km/h) or less, depending on the terrain.
