Trailer Torque Settings

Please find below the Torque Settings for your Bramber, Rapide, Snipe, and Mersea trailers.

It is also strongly recommended that all bolts and nuts have a thin layer of LanoShield applied to them as this will not only stop the rusting, but it will also make them far easier to untighten.
