Schwab's RV World in Leduc is your Alberta fifth wheel dealer. Here are some tips for safely towing your fifth wheel so you can feel more confident when it’s time to hit the road.

1. Салмақ шектеуіңізден төмен болыңыз

While your average fifth-wheel hitch can haul anywhere from 7,000 to 13,000 kilograms, you won’t want to overburden that hitch or your towing vehicle with too much cargo weight. Be mindful of how much you load into your fifth wheel and use a truck-stop weigh station to weigh your fifth wheel if you have concerns. Keep weight balanced from left to right and try to place 60% of your cargo weight up front and 40% towards the rear of the trailer.

2. Тауға шығуға дайын болыңыз

Our fair province has mountains in more than one direction, including the Canadian Rockies to the southwest, so you’re bound to run into some high elevations on your travels. Fifth wheels can be hauled through mountain passes and up inclines, but you do need to be on your guard. If you know you’re going to head into the hills, do everything you can to keep your fifth wheel’s load light and lower your truck’s gears as you climb inclines. Take things slow and when you’re coming back down, know where the emergency pull-offs are on your route in case you can’t get your brakes to activate when needed.

3. Шиналарыңызды жақсы күйде ұстаңыз

Driving on bad tires is never ideal, but you’re going to put yourself at extreme risk if you try to drive with bad tires on either your fifth wheel or your towing vehicle. Use a tire-pressure gauge to check all your tires and air them up to the psi levels recommended in your owner’s manual. Make sure each tire is in good shape with sufficient tread depth and no embedded objects or bald patches. If you want, you can install a tire-pressure monitoring system that will help you keep tabs on your tires’ condition so you can address issues promptly.

4. Тәжірибе мінсіз етеді

It may sound tedious to hitch up your fifth wheel and practice driving in an empty parking lot, but this will give you more confidence and ensure that you know how your trailer moves and where your blind spots are. Have someone stand outside and guide you as you practice reversing, turning and parking with your towing set-up until you feel sure that you’re ready to travel.

5. Бекітуді екі рет тексеріңіз

You should always double-check your fifth-wheel hitch before you start your truck. The coupling system is secure, but it’s good to check that and make sure everything is locked down and that your kingpin is snugly in place with its latch on it. 

6. Баяу қабылдаңыз

Even if you’re in a big rush to get somewhere, it’s not going to do much good if you try to speed there, only to end up in an accident. You’ll want to drive a few kilometres below the speed limit at all times and allow other vehicles to pass you on the highway. 

Remember that you’ve got thousands of kilograms of weight behind you and you need to exercise more caution to ensure the safety of you and other motorists.
