TESTING LIGHTS BEFORE USE
1. Check that the WHITE (ground) wire of the wiring harness
is connected to the Tow-It frame and the WHITE (ground)
wire is connected to the frame of the towing vehicle.
2. With headlights in "ON" position, the tail lights, the light
cluster bar, the license plate light, and the clearance lights
should be lighted.
3. Start engine and have someone depress brake pedal.
Brake lights of tow dolly and towing vehicle should come
"on" and "off" simultaneously with each application.
4. Turn left turn signal on. Left turn light of Tow-It and towing
vehicle should flash simultaneously. Should the turn
signal lights of the trailer function opposite to those of the
towing vehicle, it is probable that the YELLOW and GREEN
wires have been reversed. Check the plug connection
under the tongue of the Tow-It to make sure wire colors are
not crossed at that point. If plug connection is incorrect,
correct problem by reversing yellow and green wire connec-
tion on the towing vehicle.
Step 1. Secure ball coupler to 2" (3,500 lb. capacity) towing
vehicle ball only. Make sure that the hitch and the hitch ball
are in good condition and not rusted, loose or stripped.
Recommended ball height is 18" to the top of the ball.
Make sure hitch is locked down and secured with safety clip.
Criss-cross safety chains under tongue and secure to towing
vehicle frame.
LOADING INSTRUCTIONS
Refer to load limits on inside of front cover.
Step 2. Ensure that towed vehicle parking brake is fully
engaged, then release the tie-down straps. NOTE: Tie down
straps must be "quick -released" by grasping ratchet pawl and
ratchet handle simultaneously and pushing down sharply. This
process will permit easy removal of strap from winch.Remove
tie-down strap hook from its storage position at the rear of the
ramp. Lay the straps on the ground in front of the winches.
Step 3. To allow the wheel platform to tilt back for loading:
1) Swing the bottom of the locking latch (C) toward the hitch
far enough to allow locking pin handle to be lifted.
2) Pull locking pin toward the hitch as far as it will go. The wheel
platform will tilt back to allow loading.
Step 4. Before loading (and unloading) towed vehicle make
sure platform and towed vehicle are in straight alignment. Tow
dolly must be completely and properly hooked up to the towing
vehicle. Towing vehicle must be larger and at least 1000
lbs. heavier than the tow dolly and towed vehicle com-
bined.
IMPORTANT: Tire tread width or body width of towed
vehicle must not exceed:
TI110 - 70" max. (outside to outside),
TI110SB 42" min. (inside to inside),
70" max. (body width)
