SETTING UP THE RAILCAR HITCH HEIGHT:
The railcar hitch FW6170 can be set at three coupling
heights in order to be loaded with different types of
trailers. In the lowered position the railcar hitch allows
the wagon to be loaded with standard containers

1.
In order to adjust the height of the railcar hitch the
operating handle (1) has to be pulled out (A) and
then hung up by moving it upwards
2.
Put the crank on the driveshaft (2) and set the
favoured height by turning the crank set. Once the
operation handle snaps back inwards the next
height has been reached.
3.
In order to be correctly locked the control lever
must be located completely under the square block.
This will be visible to the correlation of the markings
on the locking lever and the base plate (3). If the
square is not parrellel to the base plane, so the
crank must be turned further until the locking lever
can pass under the square block. Ignoring this
feature may lead to damage of the height lock
(For a better understanding the control lever and
the square block is shown in the pictures without
the cover plate)
