Use the gaIn adjustment buttons to
increase or decrease the braking feature’s
power output to the trailer. Adjust the
gaIn by:
1. Pressing the gaIn + or gaIn - buttons
to increase or decrease the setting to the
desired starting point. A gaIn setting of 6.0
is a good starting point for heavier loads.
2. Testing the adjusted gaIn setting.
a. In a traffic-free environment,
tow the trailer on a dry, level
surface at a speed of 20-25 mph
(30-40 km/h) and squeeze the
manual control lever completely.
b. If the trailer wheels lock up (the
tires will squeal), reduce the gaIn
setting. If the trailer wheels turn
freely, increase the gaIn setting.
c. The proper gaIn setting will be
at the point just below trailer wheel
lock-up. If towing a heavier trailer,
trailer wheel lockup may not be
attainable even with the maximum
gaIn setting of 10.
Note: Even advanced technology cannot
overcome the laws of physics. It’s always
possible to lose control of a vehicle due to
inappropriate driver input for the conditions.
