Be careful using the manual control. It only activates the 4 (or 2) electric drum (probably) brakes on the trailer. Extended use can generate a lot of heat. I find it best to just use the vehicle brake pedal as that operates all brakes on the trailer and tow vehicle in concert. There are times (excessive sway comes to mind) when manual trailer brake application is appropriate but most braking should be done with the brake pedal.
I guess I should have perhaps been a little more clear. I was not just coasting down the hill hammering on the manual. There were a couple of spots where I used to manual boost while already on the brake in situations that I felt things were a bit lose so to speak. But appreciate the heads up!
