7.
Slowly back up, using lowest gear
possible. Stop when fifth wheel is
under the leading edge of the trailer
(Figure 13).
8.
Set tractor parking brake. Place in
neutral. Exit cab and verify proper fifth
wheel to kingpin alignment.
9.
Adjust tractor suspension to ride height.
The fifth wheel plate face MUST make
contact with the upper coupler plate
(Figure 14). If fifth wheel does not
make contact with the upper coupler
plate, use the landing gear to lower the
trailer until fifth wheel makes contact.
IMPORTANT: If trailer is too high the
kingpin will not properly
connect with the lock jaw.
Failure to couple with the
trailer at the proper height
could result in improper
coupling, allowing tractor
and trailer separation,
which if not avoided,
could result in death or
serious injury.
IMPORTANT: NEVER inflate the tractor
suspension when the
kingpin is above the
throat of the fifth wheel.
Failure to avoid inflating
tractor suspension when
the fifth wheel is not
forward of the king pin,
could result in damage to
the kingpin and fifth wheel.
10. Slowly back into the trailer, engaging
kingpin in the fifth wheel.
11. Connect the air and electrical lines.
12. Raise the landing gear legs until the
pads are just above the ground.
