Step 1: Attach the Handle Bar

Insert the Handlebar w/ Trigger (#12) into the extended bars at the top of the Frame Bracket (#11).
Secure with contents of Fastener Bag A. Tighten the Trigger to handlebar in your desired position.

Step 2: Attach the Drill Lever

Using the contents of Fastener Bag B, Mount the Drill Lever (#13) onto the two uppermost thread
slots on the side of the Frame Bracket (#11). When viewing from the back of the frame (shown
below), the lever will point toward the front.

7

Step 3: Attach the Drill Mount

Using the contents of Fastener Bag C, connect the Drill Mount (#14) to the Frame Bracket (#11)
making sure that the protruding side is facing toward the front of the Frame Bracket. The Drill
mount will use the center two thread slots, placing it below the Drill Lever (#13).

Step 4: Attach the Frame to the Trailer Valet Unit

Using the contents of Fastener Bag D, mount the Frame Bracket (#11) to the top of the Trailer Valet
Unit’s Wheel Housing (#1).

8

Step 5: Attach Kickstand

Using the contents of Fastener Bag E, connect the Kickstand (#15) to the Frame Bracket (#11). The
screw will fit into the single lowest thread slot on the bracket, below the Drill Mount (#14).

Do not over tighten the kickstand screw. Be sure that Kickstand can rest flush against the Frame.

9

Step 6: Connect the Brake

The brake cap (#3) will be fitted to the brake mechanism (#16) on the bracket.

Lift the Brake Cap extensions upward to bring the hooks over the brake delay.
Place the hooks over the screw and release.

10

Step 7: Install the Drill

Insert and tighten the U-Joint (Fastener No. 14) into your 60V Drill (#22). Then, connect the U-Joint
to the Driveshaft (#6) on the Trailer Valet Unit.

Using the contents of Fastener Bag F, slot the included bolt through the Drill Mount (#14.) Fit the
included spacer over the bolt before screwing into the threading located on the side of the drill
handle.

If necessary, tighten the drill chuck further with the included Chuck Key (#23). Attach the 60V Drill
Battery (#24) to the drill.

11

Step 8: Tension Adjustment

Barrel Adjuster:

Turn clock-wise to decrease tension on the cable.

Locking Nut:

adjuster back into place.

Rear adjuster

Front adjuster

If needed, calibration of both the Drill trigger and Brake Delay are done on the Trigger Handle.

Adjust the rear Barrel Adjuster (shown below) to change the Drill Trigger tension.
Adjust the front Barrel Adjuster (show below) to change the Brake Delay tension.

The Drill Lever cable needs to be tensioned if the lever does not exact enough force onto the Drill
Trigger to adequately drive the unit.

The Brake Delay cable needs to be tensioned if, when releasing the trigger to stop the unit, the
brake makes a sudden grinding noise. This noise is an indication that the brake is engaging before
the gears have stopped moving.

Turn counter clock-wise to increase tension on the Cable.

Turn clock-wise to lock the barrel

SETUP

Remove all the items from the box. If the
Coupling Plate is not already installed with
the Ball Base, detach the ball from the
Locking Nut, slip the Coupling Plate under
the ball, and reinsert into the Locking Nut.
Secure tightly.

ADJUSTING THE TRAILER HEIGHT

Raise the trailer tongue to where the
coupler is about 17 inches off the ground
(the same height of the ball when the
Trailer Valet is upright).

ATTACHING THE BALL TO COUPLER

1) Slide the Trailer Valet directly under the
coupler.

2) Slip the ball into the coupler and lock the
ball with the coupler latch.

NOTE: Similar to attaching the trailer to
your hitch, you may need to adjust the
position of the ball for it to lock tightly to
the coupler.

3) Raise the trailer slightly so that the
device hangs from the coupler and the
wheels on the Trailer Valet are above
ground. This will enable you to tighten the
Locking Nut.

4) Using the Spanner Wrench, turn the
Locking Nut counter clockwise until the nut
is secured flat against the coupler.

WARNING! Failure to tighten the Locking

Nut against the coupler may cause the ball
to slip out of the coupler.

NOTE: To ensure that the Locking Nut is
securely fastened to the coupler, rock the
device in all directions and continue
tightening until there is no movement by
the device and the Locking Nut remains flat
against the coupler.

ALTERNATIVE METHOD FOR INSTALLING
THE BALL ATTACHMENT:

NOTE: This method is recommended for

heavier trailers and users who have
difficulty securing the ball tightly into the
coupler.

1) Before installing the Ball Attachment into
the Rotating Coupler of the XL, put the ball
into the trailer coupler and lock the ball
with the coupler latch.

2) Using the Spanner Wrench, turn the
Locking Nut counter clockwise until the nut
is secured flat against the coupler.

3) Lower the trailer with the Ball
Attachment into the Trailer Valet XL and
secure using the Rotating Pin.

Knowing the proper operating techniques for your Trailer Valet can help keep you and
others around you safe. This manual shows basic fundamentals for effective operations.
Apply your knowledge of your Trailer to adjust your techniques to each unique situation.

Step 6: Before Use

1) Be sure your battery pack is charged before use. Follow your drill/driver
manufacturer's recommendation.

2) Check that the drill chuck is tightly secured to the U-Joint. If not, tighten with included
Chuck Key.

3) If your trailer has built-in brakes, they must be disengaged prior to operation of the

Trailer Valet. Consult your trailer manufacturer’s manual/instructions on temporary

brake release. If this is not available to you, please contact Trailer Valet Customer
Support through phone or email for assistance.

WARNING! Always ensure the operator and bystanders are aware of load stability.

4) Lower the trailer gradually until the existing jack is above the ground and the trailer is
completely supported by the Trailer Valet.

NOTE: Keeping the trailer jack close to the ground prevents serious damages from
occurring due to unexpected failures.

Step 7: Operation

Hold the unit firmly when engaging. Pull the trigger on the Handlebar to engage the unit.
The drill will have high initial torque if the drill is engaged too quickly. Begin to move the

trailer as slowly as you are capable and carefully increase the power up to an
appropriate speed.

NOTE: It is important that you steer the device only when you are moving the trailer.
Attempting to turn at a dead stop will place excessive stress on a single tire.

NOTE: When attempting to make sharp turns from a stationary position, move the unit
back and forth slightly while turning until the unit is in the desired position. Then,
proceed to make the turn.

WARNING: DO NOT use the Trailer Valet on slopes and inclines exceeding a strict

maximum of 10 degrees on a paved/concrete surface. This rating is subject to factors
including, but not limited to, alternate surfaces, weight distribution, change in weight
capacity, and use on multi-axle trailers. DO NOT pull up or push down an incline. The
unit must always be on the lower end of any incline. If you have any questions
concerning the use of your Trailer Valet on a slope or incline, please contact us at
[phone] or email us at: [e-mail]
