Coupling To The Tow Vehicle
Bri-Mar 83
4.4 ADJUST GOOSENECK HEIGHT
The height of the ball receiver on the trailer must be adjusted so that the
trailer, when loaded to rated capacity, is level while connected to the tow
vehicle. A level trailer allows equal weight distribution on the axles.
There must also be adequate clearance between the bottom of the trailer
and the sides of the tow vehicle bed.
Connect trailer to tow vehicle (see Coupling To The Tow Vehicle) and
load the trailer to rated capacity (see Loading and Unloading The
Trailer). Park the tow vehicle and trailer on a firm level surface.
Stand back from the trailer and visually verify if the trailer is level front-
to-rear. If the front of the trailer is higher than the rear, the hitch must be
retracted. If the front of the trailer is lower than the rear, the hitch must
be extended.
Uncouple trailer from tow vehicle (See Coupling To The Tow Vehicle).
