NOTICE
The reverse lockout position hole and actuator
hole may not be in alignment. You may have
to block the trailer's wheels and pull the trailer
forward enough so the holes are aligned and
the safety pin may be inserted completely into
the reverse lockout position hole.
Figure S15: Reverse Manual Brake Lockout
Never allow the coupler latch safety pin to
remain in the reverse lockout position hole.
After reverse maneuvering, always insert
coupler latch safety pin back into the coupler
latch. Failure to remove safety pin from
reverse lockout position hole will prevent
forward movement braking which can result
in serious property damage, injury or death.
NOTICE
Trailer components may be different between
models and may change during the model
year. Be sure to read all manufacturer's
literature supplied with your Four Winns
trailer.
