I tried that a couple of times without success, maybe you'll have better luck.
From the Roadmaster User Guide:
When you drive away, steer briefly to the left and then
to the right, to extend, self-center and lock the tow bar.
Always stop at this time. Check the tow bar to ensure
that both arms are locked before assuming highway speed.
Additionally, check the other components of your towing
system, to ensure that they are fully engaged.
