PINTLE HOOK APPLICATIONS

•   Before operating the equipment, inspect for worn, 

damaged, or missing parts. Inspect the entire 
pintle hook and the area where it is mounted to the 
truck for cracks, bends, or any damage. Repair and/
or replace the equipment before using.

•   The towing vehicle on which the pintle hook is 

mounted must be of a sufficient rated capacity for 
the trailer and in proper working condition.

•   The truck air system must be equipped with an air 

dryer to prevent dirt and moisture from getting into 
the air valves.

•   The trailer must have retaining cables or chains 

hooked to an attachment capable of holding the 
trailer should a detachment occur.

•   Never jack-knife the trailer for any reason when 

dumping, loading, unloading or backing. Always 
keep the trailer and truck in a straight line. Jack-
knifing the trailer can cause damage to the pintle 
hook and/or trailer tongue.

•   Before moving any trailer, make all necessary 

connections, including the service and emergency 
air lines and electrical hookup.

•   Always drive the equipment slowly over rough 

and bumpy roads. Always operate the equipment 
smoothly and carefully.

•   Never exceed the capacity of the pintle hook and/

or any equipment being used.

•   Be particularly careful not to damage the pintle 

hook when coupling and uncoupling the trailer.

The bouncing of the truck suspension is carried 
backwards to the pintle hook. The pintle hook 
then becomes a moving force with the impact of 
a large hammer upward and downward on the 
trailer tongue eye causing abuse to equipment. 
Always drive at reduced speeds over rough terrain 
to minimize this destructive action.

NOTICE

The air pressure must be allowed to build up in 
the trailer’s air reservoir tank(s) before you move 
the equipment. When the air pressure has built up, 
check the trailer brakes to ensure proper working 
condition. If trailer brakes are not in proper working 
condition, an accident can occur, causing injury to 
the operator and/or other drivers.

CAUTION

Applying the brakes severely increases the weight 
transferred to the trailer tongue on trailers without 
front axles. Therefore, products that can shift, such 
as sludge, water, etc., must never be transported 
by this type of trailer. Failure to comply can result 
in injury.
