Safety Rules
Remember, any piece of equipment like a motorcycle trailer can cause injury if operated improperly or if the
user does not understand how to operate the equipment. Exercise caution at all times when using your tow
vehicle and tow trailer.
Please exercise caution at ALL times when using the trailer on your tow vehicle:
•
Make sure that the towing vehicle and the hitch on your vehicle is more than capable of towing the
trailer. It is important to check your vehicle owner’s manual for trailer ratings.
•
Check that the trailer coupler is fastened securely onto the Towing vehicles ball. The trailer ball must
be a 1 7/8
” ball.
•
Make sure coupler is locked and the safety chains are attached to the trailer and the vehicle.
•
Check the operation of all lights. Operating lights are mandatory on a trailer and must operate
correctly.
•
Inspect the trailer and all parts before use.
•
Check to insure that all Wheel Bolts are tight. Torque to 80 ft.lbs. Re-tighten after the first 50 miles,
or 80 kilometers.
•
Check the tire pressure. Maximum 80 PSI (552 KPA) when carrying the maximum rated load.
•
Repack the wheel bearings every 2000 miles or 3200 kilometers or a minimum of once every year.
•
Swivel Hitch may be needed to ensure safe turning when being pulled behind a motorcycle. Swivel
hitches sold separately.
•
Do not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating ( G.V.W.R.) which is shown on the trailer serial /

Balance and secure the load on the trailer. See the trailer loading section in this manual.
