Never tow this trailer before you check to be sure:
• Coupler, hitch and hitch ball are of the same size.
• Coupler and safety cables are safely secured to the hitch.
• Check all fasteners for proper tightness.

itself is not a satisfactory tie-down!)

• The load is within the maximum load-carrying capacity of both
the trailer and the tow vehicle.
• The tires are properly inated.

that there is sufcient overhead clearance before removing the
boat/trailer from cover, or when towing that the unit will clear
any overhead items such as trees, bridges, overhead power lines,
overpasses, etc.
This trailer is manufactured to meet the applicable federal safety
