Specifications

this is not covered by the

Limited Warranty for the

trailer. To avoid this situ-

ation, consider attaching

mud ﬂaps behind the tow

vehicle’s rear tires. Excep-

tional care should be taken

to travel as slowly as practi-

cal when traveling on gravel

or other loose surfaces.

• To ensure proper opera-

tion of the trailer jack,

wipe it down and lubricate

it on a regular basis.

• If the trailer is backed into

salt water, you must com-

pletely and thoroughly

wash the trailer in fresh

water to retard rusting. Salt water is very corrosive, even on galvanized

trailers, and can corrode the brake system as well. Exposure to salt water

can also cause brake pads to stick and malfunction.

• Check the braking system in the spring and again in the fall, along with

the wheel bearings. If there is anything that appears to be worn or leak-

ing, take the trailer to an authorized MasterCraft dealer for a check and

possible repair.

• Tow vehicles must always approach the trailer slowly prior to being hitched

to the trailer. is allows the operator to retain greater control. Hard impact

with the trailer or improper alignment on the trailer can result in damage to

the boat, the trailer, or both, and this is not covered under warranty. Also,

if the trailer is equipped with the Boat Buddy System, a hard hit against it

could cause damage, which is also not covered by warranty.

• e tow vehicle must have a seven-wire connector in order for disc brakes

and the trailer lights to function properly. It is important to properly con-

nect the seven-wire connector on the trailer to the seven-wire connector on

the tow vehicle.

e correct method for determining the load limit is to:

• Locate the statement, “e weight of cargo should never exceed ____ kg or

___ lbs.,” on the placard. (is ﬁgure equals the available amount of cargo

and luggage load capacity.)

• Determine the combined weight of luggage and cargo being loaded on the

vehicle. (at weight may not safely exceed the available cargo and luggage

load capacity.)
