Installation Guide

1. Mount the brake to your 5-bolt trailer axle flange and torque to manufacturer specifications (typically 50-75 ft-lbs).

2. Connect electrical wiring – attach magnet leads to your trailer's brake wiring (ground or positive configuration).

3. Break-in procedure – After installation, perform a burnishing cycle: make 20-30 gradual brake applications while driving to properly seat the new friction shoes.

4. Verify function – Confirm the self-adjuster is operating properly to extend brake life.
