Align the side holes located in the shank of the tri-ball hitch with clevis and the receiver hitch. Then, insert the 5/8in. receiver pin (not included) all the way through the holes, attach an R pin (not included) to the open end of the receiver pin. CAUTION: Before towing, be sure that the connection between the hitch and the load is properly secured and locked in place.

Check for loose hardware, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation.
