Vehicle Safety, Documents & TowingStandalone practice
Before towing a trailer with a ball-and-coupler hitch, which setup is correct?
Correct answer: Match the ball to the coupler and cross the chains under the tongue.
Why
Use the correct matching hitch components and secure the coupling. Attach chains or the approved safety device to the towing vehicle; crossed chains under the tongue can help keep it off the road after separation. Leave enough slack for turns without dragging, and follow the vehicle and trailer instructions.
