Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure the coupler is in the fully released position. Select the appropriate setting from the 11 available ratchet positions to ensure the lock is snug against the hitch housing. Regarding compatibility, verify your coupler size (1 7/8, 2, or 2 5/16 inches) before securing. To maintain the device, keep the locking barrel free of road grit and debris. If you notice the ratchet becoming stiff, apply a light coat of silicone-based lubricant to the moving parts to ensure smooth operation, especially before heading into the winter season.
