BRAKE LINE
Locate the brass brake line coupling. Remove the
plastic cap and thread the brake hose coming out the
rear of the tongue into one end of the coupling. Once
aligned, thread the side frame brake hose into the
other end of the coupling. Tighten both lines into the
coupling.
ONE AXLE BRAKE INSTALLATION
Cut the tape securing the brake line hose to the axle.
Remove the plastic plug from the bottom port in the
brass blocks of both brake calipers. Thread in the
brake hose male end and tighten to either 6-8 ft. lb. or
72-96 in. lb. of torque.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN Over tightening will cause
the brass block to crack and then leak.
Remove the plastic cap from the end of the frame
brake hose coming out of the side frame by the axle.
Carefully pull the brake hose so that it can be
threaded thru the brake line bracket. The brake hose
will then be routed down to the side port in the brass
block on the right caliper insert a rubber grommet into
the brake line clip on the spring bracket to protect the
brake hose. Thread the brake hose fitting into the
brass block. Tighten.
NOTE: The complete brake system including the axle
MUST be bled to ensure that all air has been removed
from the brake system.
For bleeding instructions see the UFP brake bleeding
manual or the ShoreLand’r Disc Brake Manual.
Fill the actuator reservoir with brake fluid and bleed
the line per the instructions in the Brake Manual.
TIRE & WHEEL ASSEMBLY
Mount the tire and wheel assemblies using the 1/2”
fine threaded tapered lug nuts provided. Tighten to
85-95 ft./lb. torque using the rotation pattern as shown
in the ShoreLandr’s Owners Manual.
Re-torque the lug nuts after 50 miles driving and then
periodically thereafter
DUAL AXLE BRAKE INSTALLATION
If your trailer is equipped with dual axle brakes con-
nect the line to the axle as follows:
Cut the tape securing the brake line hose to the axle.
Remove the plastic plug from the bottom port in the
brass blocks of both brake calipers. Thread the brake
hose male end into the block and tighten to either 6-8
ft. lb. or 72-96 in. lb. of torque.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN Over tightening will
cause the brass block to crack and then leak.
Attach the brake hose from the connecting kit to the
side port right side of rear axle .Route from the axle
to the spring bracket and attach with the U-shaped
hose clip. Once the brake hose is secured in place.
Locate the brass tee connector. Screw the male
port of the tee into the brake line hose. Tighten.
Next connect the side frame brake hose into the top
port on the tee. Connect the two axles together
using the 42” brake hose supplied. Thread one end
of the hose into the brass tee just installed. Route
the hose over to the other brake line clip on the
spring bracket and then down to the side port in the
brass block on the right caliper of the front axle,
form a loop using the extra hose in the line and
using the included clips and screws attach the hose
to the side frame to keep it up out of the way and
insert a rubber grommet into the brake line clip on
the spring bracket to protect the brake hose.
Tighten to either 6-8 ft. lb. or 72-96 in. lb. of torque.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN Over tightening will
cause the brass block to crack and then leak.
NOTE: The complete brake system including the
axle MUST be bled to ensure that all air has been
removed from the brake system.
For bleeding instructions see the UFP brake
bleeding manual or the ShoreLand’r Disc Brake
Manual.
Fill the actuator reservoir with brake fluid and bleed
the line per the instructions in the Brake Manual.
