Tongue Weight Adjustment
Approximate Tongue Weights for Best Towing. Tongue
weight too high, move the axle assembly forward. The
tongue weight too low, move the axle assembly backward.
The tongue weight should be 5% to 7% of the total gross
weight of the trailer and boat combined.
Caution:
1. To prevent damage to your utility trailer or towing vehicle,
tighten all fasteners before towing.
2. Your utility trailer is equipped with a totally grounded wire
harness. You must be sure the wire harness plug that comes
from the tow vehicle is grounded to the tow vehicle using the
white grounding wire.
