Driving and Operating

9-45

Always leave just enough slack so
the rig can turn. Never allow safety
chains to drag on the ground.

Trailer Brakes

Because the vehicle has antilock
brakes, do not try to tap into the
vehicle's hydraulic brake system.
If you do, both brake systems will
not work well, or at all.

Does your trailer have its own
brakes? Be sure to read and follow
the instructions for the trailer brakes
so you will be able to install, adjust
and maintain them properly.

vehicle is not operating.

electrical to the vehicle, see
