How to tell a left from a right EuroBrake hub
EuroBrake hubs are designed with left and right hubs. 
•	 When looking at the back plate of the hub position the snorkel, where the brake 
cables enter the hub, at the bottom of the hub (6 o’clock).
•	 On a right side hub you will see the rear of a spring to the right (3 o’clock).
•	 On a left side hub you will see the rear of a spring to the left (9 o’clock).
•	 When fitting the braked hubs to your trailer it is essential to have the hubs fitted 
to the correct side. The right side hub goes on the drivers right.

the hub, then backed off slightly,
