Expert Reply:

The receiver included with the # SH27FR Stealth Hitch isn't intended for towing of any kind, it's meant to accommodate hitch mounted accessories like a bike rack or cargo carrier.

In order to tow with the hitch, you'll also need the # SH36FR upgrade kit which includes towing ball mount and the trailer wiring harness. I've linked you to the installation instructions for the hitch.
