Set-Up - Jayco Cardinal Deluxe 1986 Owner's Manual

AUTOMATILC 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.
CAUTION: Break-away switch
should be
fully released
during vehide operation. CHECK BEFORE
TOWING.
-
CAUTION: Do not
use sway
bars or equalizer bars on the
surge brake system.

SET-UP
OPENING YOUR JAYCQ CAMPER
After parking your new Jayco tent camper, disconnect the coach
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.
