steering wheel to adjust direction. Exag-
gerated movements will cause greater
movement of the trailer. If you have dif-
culty, pull forward and realign the tow
vehicle and trailer and start over.
WHEN PARKING, try to avoid park-
ing on grades. If possible, have someone
outside to guide you as you park. Once
stopped, but before shifting into Park,
have someone place blocks on the down-
hill side of the trailer wheels. Apply the
parking brake, shift into Park, and then
remove your foot from the brake pedal.
Following this parking sequence is im-
portant to be sure your vehicle does not
become locked in Park because of extra
load on the transmission. For manual
transmissions, apply the parking brake
and then turn the vehicle off in either
rst gear when parked uphill, or reverse
gear, when parked downhill.
WHEN UNCOUPLING THE TRAIL-
ER, place blocks at the front and rear of the
trailer tires to ensure that the trailer does not
roll away when the coupling is released.
AN UNBALANCED LOAD may cause
the tongue to suddenly rotate upward;
therefore, before uncoupling, place jack
stands under the rear of the trailer.
again at each fuel or rest stop. Take a
quick visual check of:
the coupler,
safety cables,
emergency brake cable,
wiring connector,
tie-downs,
and tires.
Look for:
any obvious uid leaks;
unusually hot brakes or hubs;
or damage by road hazards; and
low tire pressure.
Make a point to pay particular attention
to the right (starboard) side of the trailer,
as this is most typically where road hazard
damage occurs.
These are some brief tips for maneuvering
with a trailer attached to a tow vehicle:
WHEN BACKING UP, place your
hand at the bottom of the steering wheel.
To turn left, move your hand left. To turn
right, move your hand right. Back up
slowly. Because mirrors cannot provide
all of the visibility you may need when
backing up, have someone outside at the
rear of the trailer to guide you whenever
possible. Use slight movements of the
IF A TRAILER SEEMS HARD TO
TOW or sways to one side, a brake rotor
may not be rotating freely. If this appears
to be the problem, immediately contact
your authorized MasterCraft dealer for
assistance. Ignoring this symptom could
result in brake failure.
THE TRAILER JACK AND LUG
WRENCH that came with the tow ve-
hicle may also work on the trailer, but
don’t count on it! Check to make sure.
MAKE UP A SPECIAL ROAD TRIP
KIT AND CARRY IT WITH YOU ON
ALL TRIPS. The kit should include a
spare wheel and tire, lug wrench, wheel
chocks, bearing grease, spare strap for
tie-downs and winch, extra lights, wheel
bearings and road ares.
SOME INSURANCE POLICIES
DO NOT PROVIDE COVERAGE
WHEN TOWING A TRAILER.
Check the policy or call the insurance
agent to be certain that coverage exists.
