Uncoupling
When uncoupling the trailer, place blocks at the front and rear of the
trailer tires to ensure that the trailer does not roll away when the
coupling is released.
Unbalanced Load
An unbalanced load may cause the tongue to suddenly rotate up-
ward; therefore, before uncoupling, place jack stands under the rear
of the trailer.
Difficult Towing
If a trailer seems hard to tow or sways to one side, a brake rotor may
not be rotating freely. If this appears to be the problem, immediately
contact your authorized MasterCraft dealer for assistance. Ignoring
this symptom could result in brake failure.
Check Trailer Jack and Lug Wrench
The trailer jack and lug wrench that came with the tow vehicle may
also work on the trailer, but don’t count on it! Check to make sure.
Road Trip Kit
Make up a special road trip kit and carry it with you on all trips. The
kit should include a spare wheel and tire, lug wrench, wheel chocks,
bearing grease, spare strap for tie-downs and winch, extra lights,
wheel bearings and road flares.
Insurance
Some insurance policies do not provide coverage when towing a
trailer. Check the policy or call the insurance agent to be certain that
you have appropriate insurance coverage in place.
Introduction
With the purchase of a new MasterCraft trailer, custom-built to inte-
grate with a MasterCraft boat, value has been added to the boating
experience. Access to thousands of recreational waterways is now
available.
MasterCraft produces trailers to accompany its various models of
superior boats. These trailers have been specifically designed for
many years of attractive and trouble-free service. Now, it is up to the
owner and/or operator to give the trailer proper care and mainte-
nance to be sure it will continue to perform safely and satisfactorily
for years to come.
The purpose of this section of the Owner’s Manual is to provide
the information that owners and operators need to fulfill that goal.
Please read and follow the warnings and instructions carefully. Also,
because all trailers are not exactly alike, be sure to read and comply
with any warnings and additional information supplied by Master-
Craft and its parts suppliers within the owner packet. It’s the best
way to obtain peak performance.
Before towing this trailer, be sure to read and understand this
Owner’s Manual.
