Tie Down 750E - Manual (Page 6)

WARNING
Actuator and brakes should always be flushed with fresh water after using trailer in
corrosive conditions. This includes salt water, fertilizers and other corrosive materials.
Before storing trailer remove brakes and clean thoroughly. It is also wise to repack the
bearings at the same time. Failure to properly and adequately maintain the actuator
could cause serious damage, injury or death.
WARNING
The breakaway system is not designed to operate if the trailer does not separate
completely from the tow vehicle, or if the tongue goes under the rear of the tow vehicle.
WARNING
In the event that the breakaway system is used, check all system components (cable,
S-hooks, etc.) for proper working order. Replace any damaged parts with genuine Tie
Down parts only.
WARNING
When re-setting the break a way system keep hands and fingers clear as you re-set the
mechanism, hydraulic pressure held in the system may cause the assembly to snap back
suddenly.
WARNING
AVOID sharp turns, which can cause the actuator to bind or jackknife against the tow
vehicle or cause a bend in the tongue. Either can damage the actuator causing brake
failure. AVOID towing trailer across large bumps or dips that may over stress the
connection between the trailer and tow vehicle, as this could result in damage to
the actuator.
WARNING
DO NOT REUSE BRAKE FLUID. Always use fresh DOT 3 fluid from a fresh container. Failure
to maintain proper levels of fluid in the reservoir will cause brake failure.
WARNING
Failure to install the hitch pin before towing can result in accidental opening of the coupler
hitch latch which can lead to the trailer coming off of the hitch ball causing serious
damage, injury or death. If pin will not fit into the front lower hole, the coupler is not
attached properly. Re-set coupler on hitch ball.
