Trailing Arm Pivot Bolts

 

The pivot bolts are a high tensile steel. The service interval for these bolts is 5000km under normal use and 2500km 
for harsh off-road conditions. During travel they should be inspected daily to ensure they have not rotated or become 
damaged. Correct torque is 190Nm 

 

Brakes and Handbrake - Electric

 

 

Features

 

Your trailer is fitted with electric brakes that require a brake controller that can be operated from the driver’s seat. 

1.  Manual adjusted to provide the correct braking capability for varying road, off-road and load conditions. 
2.  They can be modulated to provide variable braking force, thus easing the brake load on the towing vehicle. 
3.  There is very little lag time between the moment the tow vehicle’s brakes are actuated and the moment the 

trailer brakes are actuated. 

4.  They can provide some braking independent of the tow vehicle in the event of an emergency. 

Operation

 

When electrical current is fed into the system by the controller, it activates the electromagnets in the brakes. These 
electromagnets are energized and are attracted to the rotating surface of the drums which moves the actuating levers 
in the direction that the drums are turning thus applying pressure from the brake linings to the drum surface 

Trailer Plug Wiring

 

The following diagrams outline the correct wiring for 7 & 12 pin plugs
