Second Trailer Hitching Procedure
The following procedure will help to assist you in securely hooking up the second trailer to
your RV.
1. Make sure the (second) trailer wheels are blocked.
2. Turn the tongue jack crank to raise the trailer tongue above the hitch ball.
3. Open the coupler latch on the trailer hitch.
4. Back the tow vehicle/ fifth wheel combination into the proper position.
5. Turn the (second) trailer tongue jack crank to lower the coupler onto the hitch ball.
6. Close the coupler latch after it is completely seated.
7. Remove the dolly wheel or platform (if so equipped) and retract the tongue jack to its
maximum height.
8. Attach the breakaway cable to the hitch receiver on the RV fifth wheel.
9. Attach the safety chains. See Safety Chains for additional information.
10. Plug in the wire harness/connector.
11. Walk around the RV and the second trailer making sure all exterior lights are working
correctly.
12. Remove the trailer wheel blocks.
Wire Harness/Connector Plug
A 4-way wire harness/connector plug is wired into your RV to connect electrical power
from the RV to the second trailer for travel. This supplies power to the tail lights, clearance
lights, turn signals, brake lights, etc. The 4-way wire harness/connector is not wired for
operating electric brakes.
The connector plug may build up corrosion with extended use and should be cleaned
periodically to insure good electrical contact. Make sure the connector plug is kept clean
and protected from road elements as you travel.
