2.2 DRIVING SAFETY
1. Only trained and licensed drivers are allowed to
tow this trailer.
2. Observe all applicable road and driving regula-
tions. Check with local transport authorities if
you have any questions.
3. Inspect the trailer before towing. Adjust, repair
or replace components or systems to maintain
trailer in good towing condition. Do not tow the
trailer unless it is in good condition.
4. Do not allow anyone in the trailer when travel-
ling on the highway. The trailer is not
equipped with passenger restraints appropriate
for highway travel.
5. A trailer attached to a tow vehicle adds consid-
erable weight and length to travelling unit and
changes its stability and handling characteris-
tics. Allow more space for stopping, turning,
passing, parking, accelerating etc. during
operation. The extra weight and length results
in different stability characteristics. Drive at a
slower speed when turning, cornering or on
rough terrain. Use extra care in adverse
conditions such as rain, darkness, snow, sleet,
icy surface, hilly terrain, rough road or a soft
surface.
6. Maintain brakes on both the tow vehicle and
the trailer in top condition at all times. Allow
extra distance for stopping. Be extra vigilant in
adverse surface conditions such as wet, icy,
slushy, rough or a soft surface when applying
the brakes. After going through water, slush or
snow, apply the brakes carefully in an open
area to check if one side grabs. Use gentle
applications to dry the brakes and restore
uniform operation. Do not tow if uneven brake
action persists.
2.3 FUEL
(MOTOR AND LP GAS)
1. Do not smoke when filling tow vehicle fuel tank
or LP gas tank.
2. Extinguish all pilot lights before refuelling.
3. Do not bring or store fuel or LP gas containers,
gasoline or other flammable liquids in the
vehicle. Vapours can be released causing
breathing difficulties or an explosion or fire. LP
gas containers vent excess pressure into the
atmosphere.
4. Do not fill LP gas containers more than 80% of
capacity. Overfilling can lead to excessive
venting or gas flow and result in an explosion
or fire.
5. Do not use an open flame to check for an LP
gas leak. Use soapy water and watch for the
bubbles. Close valve on tank and latch all
covers, caps and doors after filling system.
6. Do not connect natural gas to the LP system.
7. Install LP gas regulators with the pressure
regulator vent facing downward. Do not
obstruct vent hole. In cold weather, condensa-
tion can get into the regulator and cause
freeze-up. Use a light bulb to thaw out. Do
not use an open flame or heat lamp to thaw
out.
8. When using the stove, turn igniter knob to
create a spark at the burner when burner is
turned on. Large volumes of gas can lead to
an explosion and fire if igniter is not turned
when burner turned on. Turn burner off and let
gas dissipate before trying to relight if it does
not light immediately.
9. Do not use the furnace when the vehicle is
moving. Turn the gas off at the LP container.
10. Do not obstruct LP gas compartment when
parking. Open access allows emergency
workers to close master valve if an emergency
occurs.
