Refer to the manufacturer’s 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.

WHEN THE TRAILER IS NEW - JAY FEATHER EXP ONLY

Caution: The following process to “season” your trailer tent is important. If you do

not follow this procedure, you may experience some water seepage during the first

few exposures to rain.

1. Well in advance of any trip, set up your trailer.

2. Using a garden hose, thoroughly soak the tent with a light spray of water. DO NOT

spray directly on the canvas with a high pressure hose.

3. After the tent dries, repeat the soaking process three additional times.

If you note any water seepage or leaks after seasoning your tent, let the tent dry then spray

water repellant on the INSIDE of the seam where seepage occurs. One or two applications

of water repellant may be necessary to stop all water seepage in seams where thread enters

the fabric.

NOTE: Touching the tent canvas when it is wet can cause leakage. If leakage

persists, please contact your independent, authorized dealer for assistance.
