BREAK AWAY USER GUIDE
What is a break away switch?
Trailers that are over GTM 2000kg must have installed a break away switch. The switch is a wire that travels from the trailers
brakes to the towing vehicle.
Why do I need one?
If the trailer becomes detached from the towing vehicle, the safety cable will pull out of the switch and engage the brakes on the
trailer.
How do I secure the cable of the switch to my vehicle?
Break-Away Switch cable should be secured to the vehicle bumper or frame.
The cable can be attached many different ways. We recommend connecting the break away as illustrated below. Take the cable in
a route through one of the safety chains then connect the cable loop to the towing vehicle.
Run the chain safely and loosely from the breakaway unit to the vehicle.
BE CAREFUL
DO NOT pull the Break Away cord from the unit to use as a hand brake rather than using the hand brake itself. When the cord is
removed from the unit it draws power from the battery. If by accident the cord becomes removed from the unit, reconnect
immediately and check your trailers battery charge level and charge if needed.
