Master Tow Dolly Turning Issue

I just bought a 2019 Master Tow 77T w/surge brake. Driving it home (with no load) on the highway it worked beautifully but when I got off the highway and made turns it started locking the brakes. As soon as I start going straight again, it works fine. Anybody know what is causing this?

Are the safety chains too snug, pulling the rig in and activating the brakes?

There were no chains, no car. We just purchased it and we were towing it home.

You didn't have safety chains on the tongue, hooked to the tow vehicle ?

If they were hooked to short, they could pull on the brake actuator in a turn.
