Rules of the Road — Before Towing For your safety and to protect Clarabelle, please complete the following checks before every departure: • Anti-Sway Hitch: Always use the provided weight-distribution/anti-sway hitch, properly installed and secured. • Hitch & Connections: Double-check that the coupler is fully seated and locked, hitch components are secured, and the electrical connector is firmly attached. Safety Chains: Ensure safety chains are properly crossed beneath the tongue, securely attached to the tow vehicle, and clear of the ground. Confirm the emergency breakaway cable is independently attached. • Brakes & Lights: Test the trailer brakes, brake controller, turn signals, brake lights, and running lights before departure. • Propane: Close the propane cylinder valves and ensure the tanks and compartment are properly secured. • Awnings: Fully retract and lock all awnings before towing. Stabilizers: Ensure all 4 stabilizer jacks are completely raised and stowed. • Tongue Jack: Fully retract the electric tongue jack. • Entry Step: Fully retract and secure the entry step. • Final Walkaround: Confirm all windows, roof vents, doors, storage compartments, and interior cabinets are closed and secured. • Disconnect and stow all utility hookups, remove wheel chocks, and verify tire pressure. Never tow Clarabelle without completing these safety checks. If anything appears loose, damaged, or improperly connected, do not depart until the issue has been resolved.
