Coupling
1. Back up closer to the trailer, centering the kingpin on the throat of the fifth wheel.
STOP. Set vehicle brakes.
2. Check to see that the trailer is at the proper height for coupling. (The front of the skid plate should contact
the fifth wheel approximately 100 - 150 mm behind the fifth wheel’s pivot point. If not, raise or lower the
fifth wheel and if necessary, the trailer landing gear, to obtain this position.)
3. Back under the trailer and engage the fifth wheel locks with the trailer kingpin. Ensure the landing legs have
lifted clear off the ground. Pull forward to test the completeness of the coupling as an INITIAL check. Set
vehicle brakes. Next, visually inspect the fifth wheel, as shown in Figure 3, to verify that it is properly locked.
Failure to verify a proper couple
can result in tractor and trailer
separation, causing death or
serious injury to you or other (see
Figure 3).
5. If required, the manual secondary lock should be
engaged. To engage the secondary lock, remove
the hairpin clip on the secondary lock handle
allowing the secondary lock to pivot behind the
locking yoke as shown in Figure 4.
6. Connect air lines. Release trailer and vehicle
brakes. Raise trailer to desired height and move
trailer.
Elevating fifth wheels in the
elevated position are less stable
than standard fifth wheels. To
avoid rollovers, do not travel at
excessive speeds, and do not make
sudden turns or maneuvers.
This unit is not recommended
for operation on public streets
and highways and does not have
required CRN approvals.

Uncoupling
1. Position yard spotter vehicle and trailer on firm, level ground clear of obstructions and people.
2. Release trailer brakes, lower fifth wheel until the trailer landing gear touch the ground. Set vehicle brakes.
3. Disconnect trailer air supply and electrical connection.
4. If the manual secondary lock was engaged, remove the hairpin clip on the secondary lock handle, pull the
secondary lock handle outward to disengage the secondary lock. While holding the handle out, re-insert the
hairpin clip into the hole in the handle. (See Figure 5.)
5. Actuate the fifth wheel control valve and hold it in to open the locks.
6. While holding the lock control valve in, slowly pull out from the trailer.
7. After driving completely free of the kingpin, release the lock control valve.
