matically when the tow vehicle’s brakes are applied.
When the tow vehicle slows down or stops, the forward
momentum or “surge” of the trailer against the hitch ball
applies pressure to a master cylinder in the trailer cou-
pler. The master cylinder supplies hydraulic pressure
through the hydraulic system which activatesthetrailer’s
disc brakes. See Figures S5 and S6. Please refer to
the manufacturer’s literature included in your owner’s
packet for further details regarding operation and main-
tenance.
When raising or lowering the jack, prevent the caster
from rotating while cranking. Make sure the jack is
planted on a firm and level surface before unhitching
the trailer.
To prevent personal injury or damage to the boat
and trailer, observe the following:
The benefits of disc brakes in comparison to drum
brakes:
•
•

weight is on the trailer jack.

•
•
•
Fewer moving parts.
Longer life due to fewer moving parts.
Friction pads are easily accessible.
Easy access to caliper for cleaning and mainte-
nance.

the swivel jack. Use towing vehicle to move
the boat and trailer.

•
Calipers are self-adjusting allowing smoother
braking operation.
Braking performance less likely to be
affected by dirt, water, or rust contamination.
Fade resistant.
•
Keep body and feet clear of trailer tongue
when raising or lowering jack.
Always remember to swivel jack to the horizontal posi-
tion before towing the trailer. Damage to the caster and
jack may result.
