DRAWBAR & TURNTABLE

ADJUSTABLE DRAWBAR HOUSING:

Some drawbars have an optional adjustable drawbar housing. This allows the drawbar reach to be extended and retracted. The adjustable drawbar clamp housing must be kept tight when the trailer is in operation. All safety cables, air, and electrical lines must also be properly connected no matter the drawbar reach location.

Before sliding the adjustable drawbar, set the trailer brakes end of the slider tube. All air & electrical lines and safety cables must be disconnected and clear. Stand clear of the drawbar when adjusting the drawbar reach. After sliding the adjustable drawbar, reconnect the air & electrical lines and secure the safety cable.

Periodically check and always maintain a tight drawbar slide mechanism.
