Step 1 – Attach trailerAlign the coupling head with the tow ball on your vehicle by lifting the magnetic sweeper until the coupling is directly over the tow ball. Next, lift up the handle on the coupling head and push it down onto the tow ball until the handle clicks back down in a secure position. |

The trailer magnetic sweeper can be driven at 50mph when it is not in use, but it will need to be used at 5-10mph to efficiently pick up ferromagnetic material. If it is driven faster than this, the wheels could become damaged. | |||

Step 3 – Remove materialTo remove the material from the magnetic sweeper, either wipe it off with a cloth/glove, or use the release system if there is one available. To use the release system, pull the lever upwards to release the material. |

Step 4 – Remove trailerWhen the sweeping is complete, remove the trailer by lifting up the handle on the coupling head and lift off the tow ball. You will then need to move the magnetic sweeper away from the vehicle. |
