Important Notice!
Be sure towed vehicle is suitable or adaptable for towing.
A few models are not towable!
Be sure to check if towed vehicle requires additional equipment such as a transmission lube pump, free-wheel hubs,
driveline disconnect or axle locks. Failure to properly equip towed vehicle will result in severe damage to towed vehicle’s
transmission.
Be sure that towed vehicle’s steering wheel is unlocked and free to turn. Check manufacturer’s specifications for the proper
way to unlock steering wheel.
Be sure to check that receiver on towing vehicle is not inset to far. When attaching a Demco towing product it is important
that turning clearance is adequate. A receiver that is inset to far on a towing vehicle will shorten turning radius. Failure
to check this may result in towing or towed vehicle to be damaged. It may be necessary to install a receiver extension to
allow for proper turning clearance.
WARNING: ADDITIONAL SAFETY ITEMS
Safety is of utmost importance at all times. To prevent personal
injury or property damage, observe the following.
• Before allowing anyone to hook up or operate the Excalibar 3, be
sure they have read and understand the proper operating procedure.

Step 5. Slide and twist the legs into position to attach them
to the baseplate on towed vehicle. Secure to baseplate using
the two attaching pins and 1/4” quick-lock pins. Attach safety
cables. Now connect the lighting cable between the towing
vehicle and the towed vehicle lighting system or optional light bar.
The coiled section of the cable will be stored on the support
rod. Towing vehicle must be larger and at least 500 lbs.heavier than the
towed vehicle and tow bar combined.
Step 1. Out of the box, the Excalibar 3 tow bar is setup for the
recommended positions for the safety cables and light wire stor-
age rod. These can be positioned to new areas to fit your setup
by loosening the screw on the retaining rings and sliding them
off the rail and relocating to a new position and tighten screw.
Install the light cable (optional) by placing the coil over the wire
support rod. Secure the cable with the cable locking hair pin.
Hooking Up the Vehicle to Be Towed
Refer to load limits on inside of front cover.
Step 4. Position the vehicle to be towed approx. 24” be-
hind the towing vehicle. Perform a tow bar check, look for any
loose fasteners, condition of safety cables, excessive move-
ment in connecting leg shaft when the shaft is extended and
locked. If any excessive movement or loose fasteners, the tow
bar will need to be serviced before towing. The vehicles do
not have to be in straight alignment to complete the hook-up.
Engage towed vehicle and towing vehicle parking brake.
Step 2. Insert the lock pin block and spring into the Excalibar
3 receiver tube and line up block with hole in tube. Insert the
Excalibar 3 into a Class III or IV hitch. Caution: Tow Bar must
be inserted directly into tow vehicle receiver hitch or into an ap-
proved rise drop receiver only! Tow Bar should never be insert-
ed into a receiver extension, bike rack, storage rack, motorcycle
rack, or any other device that extends the tow bar away from the
tow vehicle.
Step 6. Hook safety cables to chain anchor of baseplate.
Note: Make sure safety clip is in working order.
Step 7. Leave the electrical cable storage pin (circled above) out
for the locking procedure in step 6. When step 6 is completed,
position cable on storage rod leaving enough slack, and insert
pin.
Step 3. Insert receiver pin through receiver until pin passes
through. Secure pin with the Receiver hair pin. Crisscross safety
cables underneath pivot assembly and attach to chain anchors
on towing vehicle. Do not use coiled safety cables with this tow
bar, always use straight Demco safety cables.
quick-lock pin must be
closed properly. Fold ring of Quick-Lock
Pin to the side of the pin that allows ring

Tow Bar Instructions
Step 3. Remove pins that attach tow bar to towed vehicle.
will remain in position. Slide the extendable legs back into tube.
Position electrical cable on storage rod and insert pin to prevent
cable from sliding off.
Step 4. Now take the bottom leg and lift up high enough for
storage pin to clear under storage plate. Turn leg under storage
and push leg down so pin locks into plate. Repeat for top leg.
NOTE: Your can store in three storage positions, both arms left,
both arms right and one arm left and one arm right.
Step 8. Once you are secured to the tow bar, release towed ve-
hicle parking brake, and slowly back up the towed vehicle straight
back until one leg latches. Determine which leg latched by hav-
ing an assistant tell you. If you are by yourself put towed vehicle
in neutral or park, and apply parking brake. Get out and check
to see which leg latched. To latch the second leg, turn the top of
towed vehicle’s steering wheel into the direction of the leg that
first latched, and slowly back up again. This will latch the second
leg. Once both legs are latched, straighten wheels on towed ve-
hicle, shut vehicle off. Adjust tow bar receiver head so the vertical
bolt is perpendicular to the baseplate height of towed vehicle.
Tighten the 1/2” bolts on each side of joint head to 85 ft/lbs. If manual
transmission, shift to neutral, unlock steering wheel and make
sure parking brake is released. Note: For four wheel drive units, shift
transfer case into neutral also. Reminder: Consult vehicle’s manufac-
turer for towing suitability of manual or automatic transmission
vehicles.
Unhooking the Towed Vehicle
Step 1.
Begin unhooking your unit by first applying both vehicle
parking brakes and unhook your lighting and safety cables. Failure
to have parking brakes applied could allow towed vehicle to roll forward.
This could result in limited space between towing vehicle and towed ve-
hicle.
Step 2. Use the latch trigger handle to release the connect-
ing legs between the two vehicles by pressing down on the latch
trigger handle.
NOTE: The Excalibar 3 comes with a 1-1/2” off-set receiver
that can be flipped to help level the tow bar with the towed ve-
hicle. The receiver is in the down position from factory, to change
to the lower position, remove both 1/2” bolts and washer from
side of receiver joint head. Remove the 3/4” nut and bolt, slide
receiver out of receiver joint head and flip receiver into the down
position. Slide receiver back into the receiver joint head and rein-
stall the fasteners.

TESTING LIGHTS BEFORE USE
1. With headlights in “ON” position, the tail lights and the
clearance lights should be lighted.
2. Start engine and have someone depress brake pedal.
Brake lights of the light bar and towing vehicle should
come “on” and “off” simultaneously with each applica-
tion.
3. Turn left turn signal on. Left turn light of light bar and
towing vehicle should flash simultaneously. Should
the turn signal lights of the light bar function opposite
to those of the towing vehicle, it is probable that the
YELLOW and GREEN wires have been reversed. Check
the plug connections to make sure wire colors are not
crossed at any point. If plug connection is incorrect,
correct problem by reversing yellow and green wire
connection on the towing vehicle.
