vehicle is not being towed. The break away system
will be activated if the pin is removed, which will drain
the towed vehicle’s battery.
Failure to follow these instructions may cause
property damage, personal injury or even death.
5. Charge the break away air reservoir —
Note: the BrakeAway system is included with the Brake-
Master 9060 and 9160; it is an optional accessory for the
9100.
For motorhomes with air or air over hydraulic
brakes (BrakeMaster 9100 and 9160) — with the motor-
home engine on, the air compressor completely charged
and the parking brake released, depress the brake pedal
for 15 seconds — apply firm pressure.
For motorhomes with hydraulic brakes (Brake Mas-
ter 9060) — start the motorhome and allow the air com-
pressor to run until it shuts off. Then apply the motorhome
brakes and hold the brake pedal down.
The break away air reservoir must be charged,
as described above, every time the motorhome and
towed vehicle are connected.
If the air reservoir is not charged, the break away
system will not apply braking pressure if the towed
vehicle separates from the motorhome, which may
cause property damage, personal injury or even
death.
Disconnecting the air cylinder
1. Slide the driver’s seat back, as far as it will go.
2. Detach the adjustable arm from the mounting post (Fig-
ure 4) by removing the safety pin (Figure 4).
3. Remove the pedal clamp from the brake pedal — pull
the hairpin clip (Figure 3) from the spring post (Figure
3).
4. Swing the slotted arm (Figure 1) up and out of the
way.
5. Hold the clevis (Figure 2) and pull back on the spring
post until the tabs under the pedal clamp are wide enough
to clear the brake pedal, then lift the pedal clamp up.
The air cylinder will obstruct the towed vehicle’s
pedal controls. After towing, and before driving the
vehicle, remove the air cylinder.
Failure to follow these instructions may cause
property damage, personal injury or even death.
