 Hey guys, welcome back to Tech Talk. My name is Chase and today we're going to be discussing how to properly hook up your boat trailer. So the first thing you want to do is back your tow vehicle up to your trailer. Today's newer vehicles have back up cameras with nice lines so you can get it nice and even. If your tow vehicle is not equipped with that, you might want to have a spotter back here which really helps in alignment. But once you get down to the ball, you'll see you have a two inch hit tray here so you want to be sure that that matches the ball that you have, which is what we have on the truck right here, two inch. So now that you have your tow vehicle in place and your hitch is directly below the tongue of the trailer, you can use your jack stand to start lowering it onto the hitch. So now that the tongue of the trailer is fully seated on the ball and your jack stand is in the upright position, go ahead and take the coupler, lock it in place, and those trailers today either have a locking pin or some sort of locking mechanism that will go on the coupler. Be sure that is in place. This will prevent the trailer from coming off the tow vehicle while going down the road and hitting any tires or potholes, bumps, anything like that. Next thing we're going to discuss is your safety chains. These will hook on either side of the receiver in the vehicle. It's important to note that in saltwater environments these can rust and deteriorate so be sure to check these every time you go out on the water. So the next thing we're going to talk about is a safety feature. This is your brake line. It's very simple. Most trailers just look simple hook as seen here. To hook it to your tow vehicle, if you were to use the safety chains and the trailer were to come off the tow vehicle, this would engage the brakes stopping the trailer in its path. So the last thing we're going to discuss is your trailer plug. We have a six pin on our trailer today. This is responsible for all the functions of the lights such as turn signals, brake lights, as well as on your running lights in the trailer, as well as the brakes. So hopefully this has helped answer any questions you may have had about hooking your trailer up your tow vehicle.
