The following guidelines are intended to assist the operator 

in the operation and handling of a trailer.
Safety precautions should be followed at all times when 

operating a trailer. Failure to read, understand and follow 

the safety guidelines could result in injury to yourself and 

others. Loss of control of the trailer or tow vehicle can result 

in death or serious injury.

 

„

Driving too fast for the conditions (maximum speed when 

towing a trailer is 55 mph).

 

„

Overloading the trailer or loading the trailer unevenly.

 

„

Trailer improperly coupled to the hitch.

 

„

No braking on trailer.

 

„

Not maintaining proper tire pressure.

 

„

Not keeping lug nuts tight.

 

„

Not properly maintaining the trailer structure.

 

„

Ensure machine is towed level to tow vehicle.

 

„

Recheck the load tiedowns to make sure the load will 

not shift during towing.

 

„

Before  towing,  check  coupling,  safety  chain,  safety 

brake, tires, wheels and lights.

 

„

Check the lug nuts or bolts for tightness.

 

„

Check coupler tightness after towing 50 miles.

 

„

Use your mirrors to verify that you have room to change 

lanes or pull into traffi c.

 

„

Use your turn signals well in advance. Allow plenty of 

stopping space for your trailer and tow vehicle.

 

„

Allow plenty of stopping space for your trailer and tow 

vehicle.

„

DO nOT drive so fast that the trailer begins to sway 

due to speed.

 

„

Allow plenty of room for passing. A rule of thumb is that 

the passing distance with a trailer is 4 times the passing 

distance without the trailer.

 

„

Shift your automatic transmission into a lower gear for 

city driving.

„

aLWaYs use lower gears for climbing and descending 

grades.

„

DO nOT ride the brakes while descending grades, they 

may get so hot that they stop working. Then you will 

potentially have a runaway tow vehicle and trailer.

 

„

To conserve fuel, don’t use full throttle to climb a hill.  

Instead, build speed on the approach.

 

„

Slow down for bumps in the road. Take your foot off the 

brake when crossing the bump.

„

DO  nOT  brake  while  in  a  curve  unless  absolutely 

necessary.  Instead,  slow  down  before  you  enter  the 

curve and power through the curve. This way, the towing 

vehicle remains in charge.

„

DO  nOT  apply  the  brakes  to  correct  extreme  trailer 

swaying. Continued pulling of the trailer, and even slight 

acceleration, will provide a stabilizing force.

 

„

Anticipate  the  trailer “swaying.”  Swaying  is  the  trailer 

reaction to the air pressure wave caused by passing  

trucks and buses. Continued pulling of the trailer provides 

a stabilizing force to correct swaying. DO NOT apply the 

brakes to correct trailer swaying.

 

„

Use lower gear when driving down steep or long grades. 

Use the engine and transmission as a brake. Do not 

ride  the  brakes,  as  they  can  overheat  and  become 

ineffective.

 

„

Be  aware  of  your  trailer  height,  especially  when 

approaching roofed areas and around trees.

 

„

Make  regular  stops,  about  once  each  hour.  Confi rm 

that:

• Coupler is secure to the hitch and is locked.
• Electrical connectors are secure.
• There is appropriate slack in the safety chains.
• There  is  appropriate  slack  in  the  breakaway  switch 

pullpin cable.

• Tires are not visibly low on pressure.
