LOADING AND UNLOADING
The weight distribution of the cargo loaded onto the trailer is important and will
have an impact on how the vehicle handles on the road. Ensure the weight of
the cargo is distributed properly and the trailer is not rear, front, or side heavy.
Always use a spotter if you are uncomfortable loading the vehicle on your own.
A wheel chock or marker can also be used as an indication of how close you will
park the vehicle from the front of the trailer.
WARNING
When loading or unloading a vehicle onto a trailer, always wear the appropriate
safety gear, including an approved helmet.
