9. Reverse the vehicle as straight and as close as possible towards the trailer. Make sure not
to damage to the trailer's tow-bar.
10. Use the extending-section and engage the hook-post with the body's lifting-bracket.
11. Inspect and verify that the hook-post is correctly engaged with the body's bracket.
12. Use the tip function and pull the body from the trailer onto the hook-lift.
Do not extend the extending-section as this places greater loads on the hook-lift. Keep the
extending-section retracted as much as possible. This will ensure optimal lifting force.
Do not retract the hook-lift's extending-section when the trailer's suspension springs are
compressed.
For LA models only:
Use the folding-hook-post, where necessary,
to reduce the loading angle when pulling the
body onto the vehicle.
13. Make sure that the tipping cylinders are fully retracted and then extend the extending-sec-
tion so that the body is completely loaded onto the hook-lift.
