Forget the brochure tongue weight (dry).
Use 15% of the gross weight of the trailer to be safe. Right around 1000 lbs....maybe a little less (loaded and trip ready).
Also, use the trailer for a trip or two BEFORE you store it. No doubt there will be stuff that needs warranty work....probably requiring a trip back to an authorized dealer....don't wait to get the kinks ironed out.
and...congrats on your new rig.
