Breakaway Switch - The breakaway switch is a crucial part of the braking system.
Located on the trailer tongue, this switch will apply the trailer brakes if it becomes
detached from the tow vehicle. Attach the breakaway switch lanyard to a permanent part of
the tow vehicle (do not attach it to the hitch ball or similar removable parts) when hitching
the trailer. If the trailer is detached from the tow vehicle, the pull pin will be pulled from the
switch. This automatically causes the switch to close and activates the trailer brakes.
Refer to the manufacturers supplied information for the breakaway switch. Consult with
your independent, authorized dealer or the switch manufacturer if you have questions.
Caution: NEVER use the breakaway switch and trailer brake system as a parking
brake. Doing so would create a high amp draw on the battery and converter. This
can cause damage to wiring, connectors and the breakaway switch.
PRE-TRAVEL CHECKLIST
In order to enjoy your travel, having all the right tools and supplies will help. A checklist
may be beneficial to avoid forgetting something essential. This list is meant to be a starting
point, while realizing that personal preference will also play a large roll in your packing.
There are items here which may not apply for you and items which could trigger other
ideas. As you expand your camping experience, you may wish to develop your own list of
needs.
