Default Towing a 2003 Honda Odyssey

All,

I want to tow an 03' Odyssey on a dolly. I understand most Honda's cannot be towed with a tow bar including our mini van. I acquired a Master Tow 80THD with Hyd Brakes to do the job which meets all the weight and width requirements..

A few questions from a procedural standpoint for those of you out there with experience on this.
1- Once you climb the vehicle into the tire slot, do you set the parking brake once parked?
2- if yes, do you leave the transmition in Park as well as the parking brake set for the towing? IOW, does the parking brake locks all 4 tires?
3- Is there any minimum time you recommend running the engine before driving the vehicle after towing? Honda doesn't have any info on that.
4- Is there any speed limit while towing that I should be aware of (not road limit) that could make handling of RV more difficult if not observed?
5- Any gouge on how often should I grease the bearings on the dolly and check brake fluids?

Thanks in advance
