1.
The moving parts of the hitch require regular lubrication. (Every 3 to 6
months). Particular attention should be paid to the Slide Arm, Cam Track,
Jaw Pivot and Sensor Mechanism. (As shown in the sketch)
2.
For best use apply Grease liberally to all moving surfaces including Pivot
Pin holding the Head and Yoke to the Cross Beam. To ensure thorough
lubrication, take the Head and Yoke off the Cross Beam by removing the
Pivot Pin and turn the Head and Yoke upside down beam to gain access to
the underneath of the Hitch. It is not recommended that the Hitch be
disassembled any further than removing the Pivot Pin. It should be noted
the bolts holding the Head to the Yoke are tightened to 240 ft.-lbs. of
torque. Reassemble the Hitch taking care to replace the Safety Lock Pin in
the Castle Nut of the Pivot Pin.
Alternatively the Hitch mechanism may be liberally sprayed with "Spray
3.
White Lithium Grease" (Obtainable in Auto Part Stores) every couple of
months. Note warnings on Spray Can.
4.
Caution: The latch mechanism can close with heavy force. Use extreme
care to keep fingers, hands, extremities & clothing out of the path of the
mechanism. Failure to do so could result in severe injury.
5.
Grease the pivot pin periodically using the Zerk fitting located on plate side
of the pin.
