Safety

Breakaway Switch Mounted 
on an A-Frame

Attach breakaway switch cable securely in a straight 
line to the tow vehicle. Locate attachments so little 
“slack” is left in the cable, but enough slack to allow for 
turning without disengaging the pin. The cable will 
activate brakes the instant a trailer becomes disen-
gaged. Brake adjustment is critical to stopping a disen-
gaged trailer.

Check Breakaway System & Brakes Before 
Each Trip

1.

Disconnect 12V plug from tow vehicle.

2.

Pull breakaway pin. 

3.

While pin is pulled, move tow vehicle forward. 
Brake should be on and wheels locked.

4.

Replace pin and secure to tow vehicle. Do not loop 
over hitch ball.

5.

Plug 12V connector into tow vehicle receptacle.

6.

Test brakes with brake controller.

NOTE: When disconnecting trailer from tow vehicle, 
make sure to replace safety pin.

Brakes

Your trailer is equipped with electric brakes.

Complete service and repair information for the electric  
brakes is found in the Axle Break Service Manual that 
is furnished with your trailer,

Note: It is important to strictly adhere to the axle break  
instructions for brake service and repair. In this way, 
you are protecting the validity of all applicable warran-
ties.

Burnishing the Brakes

Brakes on a new trailer may tend to “grab” or pulsate. 
This is normal. To correct the situation, pull the trailer 
with the trailer brake control slightly engaged a short 
distance (about 1000 ft or until trailer does not grab or 
pull to one side anymore). This action smooths down 
the brake bands. 

NOTE: Do not lock up the wheels
