MOVING THE LIGHT TOWER
The trailer’s safety chains prevent the trailer from
completely detaching from the towing vehicle when
underway.
Before trailering, read “
BEFORE TRAILERING OR
TRANSPORTING
” on page
4-3
.
To connect the light tower to the tow vehicle:
1 Connect the tow vehicle hitch to the trailer coupler.
Make sure that the coupler is securely attached to the
tow vehicle’s hitch.
2 Connect the safety chains to the vehicle’s hitch frame
and crisscross the chains under the trailer tongue to
prevent it from dropping to the road if the trailer
separates from the hitch ball. Rig the chains as tightly
as possible, with enough slack to permit free turning.
