The B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount # BWTS10033B referenced in your question does not include a hitch pin.

I recommend adding a locking hitch pin like the Blue Ox Trailer Hitch Receiver Lock # BX8858. This chrome receiver lock will work great to secure the ball mount to your hitch receiver while also helping to deter theft. The tube-style key lock resists picking and the weather-resistant plastic dust cap will keep the cylinder free from water and debris. 2 keyed-alike keys are included.

I have attached a couple short video demonstrations on these products that you can also check out.
