Trailer Brake Hand Control Valve - GMC T-Series 1999 Owner's Manual

Trailer Brake Hand Control Valve

(Option)
This control lets you apply the trailer brakes without
applying the tractor brakes. You can apply the trailer
brakes a little or apply them all the way if you have to.
Use this control only when you're driving. Don't use it
for parking or to hold the rig on a hill.
2-38
If your vehicle has this
control, it is mounted on the
console to the right of the
driver's seat.
CAUTION:
Using the trailer brake hand control for parking or
for holding the vehicle on a hill may not keep the
vehicle from rolling. This can happen if someone
hits the valve by accident, or if air pressure bleeds
from the system. If the vehicle rolls, you or others
could be injured. To park the vehicle or hold it on
a hill, use the parking brake properly.
