Troubleshooting

Jockey wheel is difficult to adjust up or down

Clean any dirt or debris from the inner tube and adjustment mechanism. Apply a lubricant like WD-40 to ease movement. Ensure any locking pins or bolts are fully retracted.

Clamp does not tighten securely

Check the clamp mechanism for damage or obstruction. Ensure the jockey wheel tube or prop stand is clean and free of debris where the clamp makes contact. Tighten the handle firmly.

Jockey wheel squeaks during operation

Apply a small amount of grease or lubricant to the internal moving parts of the height adjustment mechanism.

Rust spots visible on the finish

This is normal for zinc plating and does not typically affect performance. You can clean with a mild abrasive cleaner or apply a rust inhibitor if desired for cosmetic reasons.

  2. Ensure the jockey wheel tube is securely fastened to the trailer chassis.
  3. Adjust the jockey wheel height by loosening any locking mechanisms (if present) and extending or retracting the inner tube to the desired level. Lock it firmly in place.
  4. Position the clamp over the jockey wheel tube or prop stand and tighten the handle to secure.

Compatibility:
