I have never used one but if you search Reese hitchs, Hidden Hitch, Etc on the internet they have photos of how it works. the hitch has a bar that goes width wise and bars and chains that come off it and attach to the trailer on each side of the trailers draw bar. I know someone who uses them can explain it better but I will try. The chains and bars pull the trailer-hitch-tow vehicle level instead of the weight being carried on the trucks rear axle like a conventional hitch. This distributes the weight equally accross the whole rig using the carring capacity of the front wheels and placing a percentage of the weight on them (33%?). Since the weight is now distributed it helps steer the tow vehicle instead working against it.
