ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
Tools needed -- two 10mm wrenches, two 13mm wrenches,
20mm socket with ratchet & extension, needle nose pliers and
a grease gun.
IMPORTANT ASSEMBLY TIPS:
Do not tighten any nut and bolt combinations completely
until all parts are assembled together! Finger tighten plus
one turn of a wrench only! This will temporarily hold the
lock nut on the bolt while helping alignment of all parts!
After all parts are assembled together, all nut & bolt
combinations must be completely tightened.
Do initial assembly steps with the trailer frame parts
oriented upside down, this will aid in the assembly.
1. Secure the sides of the front trailer frame (1) to the sides
of the rear trailer frame (2) using two M6x50mm bolts (24),
M6 steel washers (16) and M6 locknuts (19). SEE FIGURE 1
2. Secure the bottom of the front trailer frame (1) to the
bottom of the rear trailer frame (2) using two M6x65mm
bolts (23), M6 steel washers (16) and M6 locknuts (19).
