Failure to replace the pullpin can result in ineffective brakes, leading to
loss of control, serious injury or death.
If you do not use your trailer for three or more months, or during winter
months:
•
Store the battery indoors; and
•
Charge the battery every three months.
Replace the breakaway brake battery according to the intervals specified
by battery manufacturer.
4.2.7 Attach and Test Surge Brake Breakaway Brake System
If the coupler or hitch fails, the safety chains should keep the tow vehicle
attached to the trailer allowing the trailer/tow vehicle combination to
come to a stop.
If the safety chains also fail, a properly connected and working
breakaway system will apply the hydraulic brakes on the trailer.
Before towing, check that the breakaway lever and chain are properly
positioned. See figure 4-7. If the breakaway lever and chain are not
located correctly due to either the chain being pulled during use or by
accident, it MUST be reset prior to the trailer being moved.
See the Surge Brake service manual for the correct resetting procedure.

The breakaway system is designed to operate ONLY if the trailer
separates completely from the tow vehicle.
DO NOT use the breakaway system as a parking brake.
