The TM should tow level, once it is loaded and the WDH springbars are raised. That means that before you raise the springbars, the TM will be a bit nose-down. It is my experience (and my expectation) that your first guess at hitch height will not be quite right. It is a two-step process.

Set the hitch height at your best guess - many people say 19" - then hook up the trailer and raise the springbars. The TM will probably not be quite level, so measure how much you have to raise or lower the hitch to bring it to level. Unhitch, adjust the hitch height, hitch up again and raise the springbars. With any luck, you are just right.
