Can Demco Kar Kaddy be Towed Empty  

Published 04/18/2022

Question:

Hi Can your Kar Kaddy SS be towed empty for a 5 hour trip? Is this not recommended? Thanks!

0

Expert Reply:

Yes, you can tow the Demco Kar Kaddy SS Tow Dolly # DM9713045 empty if ever needed and it would work fine on a 5 hour trip. You do need to keep the tire pressure down to 20 psi.
