That’s the reason for this part. In
it
are many
time-tested, important trailering tips and safety rules.
Many of these are important for your safety and that of
your passengers.
So
please read this section carefully
before you pull a trailer.
Load-pulling components such as the engine, transaxle,
wheel assemblies and tires are forced t.o work harder
against the drag of the added weight. The engine is
required to operate at relatively higher speeds and under
greater loads, generating extra heat. What’s more, the
trailer adds considerably to wind resistance, increasing
the pulling requirements.
If
You
Do Decide
To
Pull
A
Trailer
If
you
do,
here are some important points:
There are many different laws, including speed limit
restrictions, having to
do
with
trailering. Make sure
your rig will be legal, not only where you live but
also where you’ll be driving.
A
good
source for this
information can be state or provincial police.
Consider using a sway control. You can ask a hitch
dealer about sway controls.
Don’t tow a trailer at all during the first 1,000 miles
(1
600
km) your new vehicle is driven. Your engine,
axle or other parts could be damaged.
Then, during the first 500 miles (800 km) that you
tow a trailer, don’t drive over 50 mph (80 km/h) and
don’t make starts at
full
throttle. This helps your
engine and other parts of your vehicle wear in at the
heavier loads.
Obey speed limit restrictions when towing
a
trailer.
Don’t drive faster than the maximum posted speed
for trailers (or no more than
55
mph (90 km/h))
to
save wear
on
your vehicle’s parts.
Three important considerations have to do with weight:
the weight
of
the trailer,
the weight of the trailer tongue
0
and the total weight on your vehicle’s tires.
