4. Ramps (2) are required for the
front fascia (3) to clear the
flatbed (1). The ramp height
should be approximately 102 mm
(4 in). Lower the flatbed onto the
set of ramps.
Notice:
If ramps are not used, the
front fascia will come into contact
with the flatbed and may cause
damage. Always use ramps.
5. After the front tires are on the
flatbed adjust the flatbed upward
to provide additional clearance
between the air dam, fascia, and
flatbed.
6. When the fascia has enough
clearance to clear the flatbed,
lower the flatbed, and finish
pulling the vehicle onto the
flatbed.
7. Secure the vehicle to the
flatbed (2) using nonabrasive
straps (1) through all four wheel
openings and secure the straps
to the flatbed (2).
Recreational Vehicle
Towing
Recreational vehicle towing means
towing the vehicle behind another
vehicle
–
such as behind a motor
home. The two most common types
of recreational vehicle towing are
known as dinghy towing and dolly
towing. Dinghy towing is towing the
vehicle with all four wheels on the
ground. Dolly towing is towing the
vehicle with two wheels on the
ground and two wheels up on a
device known as a dolly.
Here are some important things to
consider before recreational vehicle
towing:
.
What is the towing capacity of
the towing vehicle? Be sure to
read the tow vehicle
manufacturer's
recommendations.
.
How far will the vehicle be
towed? Some vehicles have
restrictions on how far and how
long they can tow.
