Risk of injury from heavy loads.
Standing under a jacked-up trailer/vehicle can cause injury if the
trailer/vehicle falls.
− Do not stand under the trailer/vehicle when the trailer/vehicle is jacked
up.
− Wear personal protective equipment.
➢ The trailer has no spare wheel. However, we recommend having a
spare wheel in the towing vehicle.
