Operating Instructions
The Trailer Valet 5X comes with a security bolt (Part
Number 21b) that is an opon to secure the device
while trailering. If you travel with the 5X and choose to
use it, the bolt aaches through the back of the
mounng bracket and ghtens into the tube of the 5X.
Make sure this bolt is loaded onto both the Trailer Valet
and the mounng bracket, along with
the rotation and
stow pins, before trailering.
Restore the stow and rotaon pins through the
horizontal holes. This will allow the Trailer Valet to
remain aached on the trailer while being towed
and ready for reuse.
