WHEEL LUGS
When the wheels are installed on your Jayco the lug bolts must be tightened at 50-75 foot
pounds of torque.
WARNING:
Wheel lugs should be checked at 10, 25 & 50 miles when new,
then every 3,000 miles. The wheel lugs should then be checked after winter
storage, before starting a trip, or following extensive braking. Over-torquing
wheels is as dangerous as under-torquing.
During your first trip, check the wheel lugs periodically for safety. The wheel lugs should
then be checked after winter storage, before starting a trip, or following extensive
braking. Over-tightening can distort wheel. Please observe the above recommendations
for your safety and that of others. Size of lug bolts are 1/2" with 13/16" head.
BRAKES
Your Heritage Folding Camping Trailer is equipped with hydraulic surge brakes as
standard equipment. These brakes operate automatically as the tow vehicle’s brakes are
applied. When the tow vehicle operator begins to decrease speed and applies the brakes,
the weight of the moving camper pushes forward and the coupler moves downward. This
movement moves the plunger, which in turn pushes the piston and rubber cup inside the
master cylinder. Brake fluid presses inside of the wheel cylinder and activates the brake
shoes against the drum.
BACKING YOUR TRAILER (Hydraulic)
As designed, the weight of a camper pushing forward will activate the surge brake
system. When backing a camper up a hill, the weight of the camper may activate brakes,
making it difficult to continue to reverse.
1.
Prior to backing up a slope or through soft
ground, pull trailer forward slightly to assure
that the actuator socket is in the forward posi-
tion.
2.
Move the lever knob on the side of the actuator
downward from the “Towing Position” along the
curved slot in the actuator frame to the “Back-up
Position.” The slot has a notch at the bottom of
its travel. Push the lever down to engage the
locking notch.
3.
Back trailer up. This latch will slide into the
correct position when pulling forward.
NOTE:
It is extremely important to keep the master cylinder full at all times. An empty
cylinder invites moisture.
