A - Trailer Brake Coupler

Remove cap from trailer brake coupler (A). Connect pressure hose to brake coupler, making sure hose end and coupler are clean.

Depress brake pedals to operate hydraulic trailer brake. The braking effect depends on pressure applied to the brake pedals.

IMPORTANT: Reduce brake wear:

  • Make sure the pressure hose is connected.
  • Select the same gear for both downhill and uphill driving.
  • Check the hydraulic trailer brake regularly for correct functioning.
