Jayco Finch 1983 - OPENING YOUR JAYCO CAMPER

AUTOMATIC BREAK-AWAY PROTECTION
The hydraulic brake system is equipped with a break-away cable or
chain. When towing, this cable or chain should be attached loosely
to a frame member of the tow vehicle leaving enough clearance so
that the trailer can turn freely without actuating the break-away
device.
Should
the trailer separate from the tow vehicle, the break-away
cable will actuate the master cylinder, locking the brakes. this
will
stop the trailer in the shortest possible distance.
I
CAUTION: Break-away switch should be fully released
during vehicle operation. CHECK BEFORE
TOWING.
I
CAUTION:
Do not use sway bars or equalizer bars on the
surge brake
system.

from the tow vehicle. Have the coach
in a level position and tires
blocked
so the camper will not roll anywhere. You are now ready
to set up your tent which is designed to be simple and trouble free.
