THE FIRST NAME IN QUALITY COUPLINGS
BEFORE GETTING STARTED
:
► This procedure should only be performed by a
qualified mechanic.
► Measure the wear on the coupling’s pintle
hook. If the wear is at or exceeds 20% of the
cross section, the coupling is considered Out of
Service. Do Not continue.
► NOTE: These instructions cover complete
disassembly of any 2200 series coupling and
reassembly to a 2200ELL.
► Tools required: snap ring pliers; 1 7/16” & 1
1/16” sockets; flat-bladed screw driver.

CAUTION
: When removing and replacing
snap rings the appropriate snap ring plier tools
are necessary. Do not attempt removal or
replacement without the correct snap ring plier
tools. In addition, use caution when removing
and replacing snap rings – Do not over-expand
them, as damage could result. Also, when
assembling a snap ring into position - Make
certain that the snap ring is fully seated into the
groove.
► Safety glasses are required for all of the
following procedures.
► Prior to disassembly, familiarize yourself with the
location of all the various parts in the coupling.
This will assist in the assembly process.
► See attached Image Reference Section(s)
with photos and/or drawings to identify various
product parts.
► This procedure applies to all of the model 2200
series couplings.
