The Dexter DX7.5 Drop-N-Go Brake Actuator # 099-175-20 is designed for disc brakes. I am assuming you have drum brakes since you got the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator - Bolt On - Drum - 2" Ball - Zinc - 7,500 lbs # DX27FR. You will not be able to use # 099-175-20 if this is the case, but I do have a solution.
You can replace the solenoid valve with the Replacement Solenoid Valve for Titan Brake Actuators with Reverse Lockouts # T4748800. Alternatively, you can get the Replacement Consumer Lockout Key for Dexter Axle Brake Actuators - Qty 1 # DX94FR for manual lockout.
I have attached an installation video of the solenoid valve for your reference.
