(1) Tires
(2) Lug nuts Do not change the size of the tires. Do not change the type of the tires. Tighten all lug nuts to the proper specification.Refer to the OEM "Operators Manual" for more information on the trailer for operation and maintenance.
Observe all local traffic regulations and observe federal traffic regulations involved in towing the trailer package for lawful operation.
Failure to utilize an appropriate and properly sized tow vehicle that has a level horizontal hitch connection could lead to excessive towing sway. This could result in personal injury or death.
The weight of the tow vehicle should be equal to or greater than the total weight of the package. The total weight of the trailer package is marked on the front of the unit. The XQ200 weighs 6668 kg (14700 lb) with a full tank of fuel. Verify that the tow vehicle is rated for towing a gross vehicle weight of 6668 kg (14700 lb) before you attempt to tow the trailer.
Before towing, inspect the coupling devices and torque on the hitch bolts.Required torque is 215 40 N m (159 30 lb ft).
Before towing, inspect the coupling devices and check the torque on the tongue retaining bolts.Required torque is 370 50 N m (273 37 lb ft).

(8) Breakaway battery and battery charger A breakaway cable is attached to an electric brake switch that is on the tongue of the trailer. If the trailer is accidentally unfastened during towing and the breakaway cable is broken, the running gear brakes are actuated. Attach the breakaway cable to the tow vehicle.
If the breakaway switch is actuated, the actuator bracket will require replacement. The breakaway switch should only be used in emergency situations.
Inspect the safety chains. Inspect the breakaway cable. Inspect the coupling device of the tow vehicle and the chain attachment points. Look for the following defects:
excessive wear or corrosion
components that are cracked, components that are deformed, or components that are degraded
loose nuts, bolts, or other fasteners
DO NOT allow any personnel between hitch or vehicle and trailer. Failure to comply could cause possible crushing injuries or death.
Ensure that no one is in the way. The tow vehicle should then be backed up to the trailer. Position the tow vehicle in preparation for coupling.Position the tow vehicle with sufficient clearance behind the vehicle for hooking up to the trailer package.Do not attempt to raise or lower the tongue of the trailer by hand. Use the jack that is provided.
Keep hands and fingers clear of the coupling device and all other pinch points. Keep feet clear of the trailer tongue to avoid injury in case the trailer tongue should slip from the jack.
Connect the tow vehicle to the trailer. Ensure that the coupling device is fully engaged. Ensure that the coupling device is closed. Ensure that the coupling device is pinned.Attach or connect the safety chains, the breakaway cable and the 7-Pin connector.Ensure that the coupling device, the adjacent structures on the tow vehicle, and the connections do not interfere with the motion of any part of the trailer. This includes the trailer coupling device with respect to the tow vehicle when the package is maneuvered over any anticipated terrain. Ensure that the safety chains, the breakaway cable, and the electrical connection provides sufficient slack in order to prevent strain during the cornering and the maneuvering of the package.The safety chains, the breakaway cable and the cable for the 7-Pin connector must be supported in order to prevent dragging or rubbing. Dragging and rubbing can cause wear that could render the safety chains and the connections inoperative.
