Make sure that your safety chains are fastened to the frame of the trailer and to the hitch or tow
vehicle frame. Safety chains fastened directly to the hitch ball or to the bumper, are not
acceptable and will not pass vehicle inspections. Connect safety chains using a crossed
pattern under the tongue.

SWAY CONTROL DEVICES
Trailer sway control devices that restrict operation of the actuator MUST NOT be used. These
devices can limit the how much the trailer brakes work.
HOW TO ATTACH THE TRAILER
To connect the trailer to the tow vehicle, open the coupler mechanism (see instructions below)
and if necessary, raise the trailer jack. Slowly back up the tow vehicle so that the hitch ball is
under the coupler.
! WARNING
왕
Do not move the trailer to the tow vehicle. When the trailer
is moved without a tow vehicle, the brakes do not work.
If the latch accidentally opens, the coupler could detach from the hitch ball. The hitch pin
should fit easily into the hole (Figure 4). If it does not, the coupler latch is not completely
closed. Every time the coupler is attached to the hitch ball, make sure the coupler completely
covers the hitch ball and the lift handle will not open without pushing the push button to the
side. If the hitch pin is damaged or lost, contact UFP for a free replacement pin.
