trailer hitch has proper clearance above the ball.
Trailer hitching
• Lift the RELEASE LEVER ( 2 ) on the TRAILER HITCH ( 9 ) and lower the hitch onto the ball
using the TONGUE JACK ( 4 ) / DOLLY WHEEL ( 5 ). Push down on the RELEASE
LEVER ( 2 ) to secure the ball.
• Use the TONGUE JACK ( 4 ) / DOLLY WHEEL ( 5 ) to verify that the coupling is secure.
N.B.-:-I

THE BALL HITCH COUPLING IS SECURE.
• Release the PARKING BRAKE ( 6 ) by rotating the handle up until it is perpendicular with
the tongue tube.
• On the TONGUE JACK ( 4 ) / DOLLY WHEEL ( 5 ), pull the CLEVIS PIN ( 3 ) and swivel the
TONGUE JACK / DOLLY WHEEL (4 / 5) to the travel position. Re-engage the CLEVIS
