Using this CURT Class 3 ball mount is easy. First, make sure your trailer hitch has a 2" x 2" receiver tube opening as this ball mount fits perfectly into it. Insert the shank into the receiver tube. You can choose to use it in the drop position for a 6" drop when you need it, which gives a gross trailer weight capacity of 7,500 lbs and a tongue weight capacity of 750 lbs. Or, if you need a rise, just flip it to get a 4" rise with a 6,000 lbs gross trailer weight capacity and 600 lbs tongue weight capacity. When attaching the trailer ball, use the 1" hole in the ball mount. Always remember, never exceed the lowest weight capacity of any towing component like your vehicle, hitch, or trailer. For maintenance, the gloss black powder coat finish does a great job protecting the ball mount, but it's still a good idea to clean it regularly with mild soap and water. Check for any signs of damage like scratches or corrosion, especially after long trips or in harsh weather conditions. If you notice any issues, contact CURT for further advice. The ball mount comes with a limited lifetime warranty (one-year finish, one-year parts), so you can have peace of mind while using it. And don't forget, the trailer ball and hitch pin are sold separately, so you'll need to get those too before you start towing.
