Connecting the Breakaway
The breakaway lanyard is connected to a simple switch on the drawbar. When connecting the lanyard to the tow
vehicle it should be connected to a solid part of the vehicle. Do not incorporate its connection with the safety
chains.
• DO NOT CONNECT THE BREAKAWAY LANYARD TO THE SAME POINT AS THE SAFETY CHAIN SHACKLES.
• DO NOT USE THE BREAKAWAY AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO THE HANDBRAKE AND DO NOT REMOVE THE
PIN AS AN ALTERNATIVE SECURITY MEASURE. REMOVING THE PIN WILL RAPIDLY DISCHARGE THE
BATTERIES.
• IT IS A MANDATORY REQUIREMENT THAT THE BREAKAWAY BATTERY SOURCE BE CHARGED DURING
TOWING.
• NSW REQUIRES A BATTERY MONITOR VIEWABLE FROM THE DRIVERS POSITION WITH A MINIMUM OF
A VISUAL ALARM FOR LOW BATTERY VOLTAGE
