Safety Notice: The Shocker Hitch is a heavy duty unit that in most cases exceeds factory receiver hitch weight capacities, therefore it is imperative that you always read and follow the tongue and towing weight recommendations of the receiver hitch that is mounted on your tow vehicle.

Vertical Channel & Square Plate adaptor styles only: Replace existing ball coupler on the tongue of trailer with the Shocker Hitch Tongue Mount Hitch. Verify or lengthen safety chains and wiring connections to ensure proper clearance when turning corners.
To Set Air

When using Equalizer/ Weight Distribution Bars:
Follow directions above, then hook up equalizer bars, and continue inflating air bag until 1/4″ clearance on bump stops is achieved.
Note: When towing heavy trailers or trailers with high wind resistance it may be necessary to increase air pressure in the Shocker.
Usage: Under normal circumstances tongue weight should be at least 10 percent of total towing weight. NOTE: IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED THAT THE HITCH BALL BE GREASED TO REDUCE WEAR AND IMPROVE SHOCKER ACTION.
Maximum Pressure: Do not exceed 100 psi in the air bag, as it may damage the air bag.
