WARNING: The Trailer / Tow Vehicle Configuration should never be set high enough to lock up the trailer brakes. Skidding trailer wheels can cause loss of control of the trailer and tow vehicle.

Note: The Trailer / Tow Vehicle Configuration number is only a recommendation based on the weights of your trailer and tow vehicle. Other factors, such as number of axles, brake type, brake wear, etc., effect your braking performance. Adjust the Trailer / Tow Vehicle Configuration setting as necessary to achieve the desired aggressiveness.

VERY IMPORTANT: If your tow vehicle is the same weight or lighter than your trailer then please consider purchasing a Hensley Arrow to eliminate trailer sway caused by this type of configuration. Click here for more information.
