Installing a Grill Hitch

Materials:

White Lithium

Tools:

screwdriver

1. Lubricate the elbow bracket with grease--such as White Lithium.

2. Slide the elbow bracket into the receiver.

3. Once the hitch adapter has been inserted, secure it with a bolt.

4. Raise the chassis via the hand crank. Makes sure the chassis has 12' clearance from the road (important safety consideration).

5. Plug in the four-pin connector (figure A) into the hitch's electrical system. This will make the chassis's break lights and turning signals operable.

6. Remove the RV's license plate and affix it to the back of the chassis.

7. Test the chassis break lights and turning signals to make sure they're operable.
