INSTALLER MUSTS FOR SAFETY
1. INSTALLER MUST SHOW OWNER HOW TO PROPERLY OPERATE THE TOW BAR.
Instruct Owner to read and follow instructions in Owner's Manual before using tow bar. Carefully read
the section “Hook-up Instructions” and familiarize yourself with the features of the tow
bar. Demonstrate it and have the owner do a few “practice runs”. You not only impress your customer
with your thoroughness, but will start your customer off on a safer and happier towing experience.
2.
INSTALLER MUST CAUTION OWNER TO USE A HITCH OR RECEIVER FOR THE
MOTORHOME THAT IS RATED HIGHER THAN THE ACTUAL WEIGHT OF YOUR VEHICLE
INCLUDING ALL OF ITS CONTENTS.
3. INSTALLER MUST CAUTION OWNER TO SECURE TOW BAR TO BOTH VEHICLES WITH
DESIGNATED PINS AND/OR PADLOCKS.
Unless all the pins are used to secure the tow bar to both vehicles, the owner will lose his
towed vehicle.
4.
INSTALLER MUST BOLT THE STERLING QD BASE TO A MOUNTING BRACKET
ATTACHED TO THE TOWED VEHICLE’S FRAME OR UNIBODY.
The STERLING tow bar is designed as a bolt-on device only. Virtually all vehicles require a mounting
bracket assembly that is connected safely to the frame, unibody or chassis and extends beyond the
bumper. Using a mounting bracket kit designed by ROADMASTER takes the burden of doubt out of
the installer’s hands. Under no circumstances should the tow bar be welded to the vehicle, nor
should any of the pre-punched mounting holes be altered. In fact, any welding or altering of the
tow bar will void the Owner’s Warranty.
The following "Musts for Safety" are provided to your installer with the installation instructions for
the STERLING. It is repeated here for your information. As a precautionary measure, verify that
you or the installer have followed all safety requirements before towing your vehicle.
