tongue and align the holes. Place a 1/2” x 4 hex bolt into the
rear hole of the coupler and secure with a 1/2” flange lock
nut. Place a 1/2” x 1” hex bolt into the front hole on one side
of the coupler and tongue and secure with a 1/2” hex flange

Safety Chains
Place a 3/8” flat washer on a 3/8” x 1-1/4” hex bolt, the insert
the bolt into the last link of one of the safety chains. Attach
the safety chain to the tongue by then inserting the bolt into
the hole provided in the side of the tongue as shown in Detail

Attaching the tongue assembly to the frame.
Place the tongue assembly under the front of the trailer. Align
the tongue with the mounting channels on the frame. Raise
the tongue into position and secure to the frame using
two- 1/2” x 4-1/2” hex bolts and hex flange lock nuts. Tighten.
Once the tongue is installed in its permanent position the
wire harness can now be connected to the frame harness.
Match the tongue harness wire colors with those in the frame
harness and plug the two together. Attach the white ground
wire from the tongue harness to the frame with a 1/4” x 3/4”
self-tapping screw. Note that a pilot hole is provided for this
screw. It is located approximately 3” of the right of the tongue
and on the back side of the front cross member of the frame.
Once it is installed, all excess wire harness can be pushed
into the hole on the top of the tongue. Place one of the
rubber grommets provided into the hole on the top of the
tongue to shield the wire harness from any sharp edges. The
second rubber grommet can now be placed in the hole on
the top side of the tongue located just behind the coupler.
