Those of us who have a tent trailer love it. Every year we sleep in the middle of nature and feel as protected and comfortable as at home. It gives us the freedom to go out whenever we want and enjoy our holidays in comfort.
But what do we do with it when we don't need it? It usually stays parked in the parking lot or garage until the next time we use it.
Surely every time you see it you think: “How much space does this trailer take up!”
And you are right, A medium-sized trailer can take up an entire conventional garage space.Not everyone can afford this luxury.
To help our “camperos” in Comanche we recommend A simple but effective invention – parking support for trailers.
How does the trailer parking stand work?
The parking support It helps you place the trailer on its side so that it takes up half the space.. Even for longer periods of time, you can remove the hitch and gain even more space in your garage.
And so that you can easily move it around your parking space, we have the option of wheeled stands. Once the trailer is lifted and placed on the mobile stand, all you have to do is choose the corner that best suits you.
How do you mount the trailer parking rack?
All Comanche trailers are prepared so that you can easily mount the parking support. The chassis has special anchors for this purpose. If not, we supply these parts together with the parking support, at no additional cost..
Once you have checked that you have the anchors mounted, you can start with the parking support.
These are 2 “T” shaped pieces of galvanized steel tubing, which are easily inserted into the anchors of your trailer. Each “T” piece is placed on an anchor and secured with the pin. Make sure to place the trailer in a space that allows you to tilt it and move comfortably.
Make sure you have removed all the merchandise so you can maneuver freely.
Don't do it alone, it is best to perform the maneuver with 2 or more people., depending on the size of your trailer.
Spread out along the length of the trailer to tip it over. The moment of “greatest force” is when you have to lift the wheel off the ground until the first part of the trailer touches the ground. Once this point has been reached, you have to lift the trailer and tilt it completely.
And that's it! You can now remove the wheels and even the drawbar from the trailer to gain more space.
Finally, place the trailer in the corner that will be the least bothersome and for added protection you can cover it with a protective tarp. Let it rest there until the time of the next excursion arrives.
