Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To set up the jockey wheel, it needs to be attached to the trailer chassis using a compatible jockey clamp (sold separately). Ensure the clamp is securely tightened around the jockey wheel tube according to the clamp manufacturer's instructions. Adjust the wheel to the desired height for use or storage.
Compatibility: This 42mm jockey wheel is compatible with trailers and caravans that have a standard 42mm mounting bracket or that can accommodate this diameter tube. Always ensure the jockey clamp used is designed to securely fit a 42mm tube.

For outdoor storage, consider covering the jockey wheel to protect it from excessive moisture and debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the zinc plating.
