OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Loading the Trailer
1.
Practice all standard industrial safety standards
Do not load any payload that will
overload any component of the trailer or cause an
unsafe condition.
2.
Proper operation requires that the undercarriage be
pulled fully forward to create lowest load angle.
3.
Park the tractor/trailer in a straight line on level even
surface. Set the tractor brakes and release the trailer
brakes
4.
Start operation of hydraulic power system. If the
hydraulic engine package is installed start and warm
up engine following engine operating instructions in
“Auxiliary Hydraulic Power Engine Operation” on
page 3-12 (Read engine operator’s manual.)
5.
Alternate between moving the undercarriage forward
(out of pockets) and tilting the front of the bed up until
the undercarriage is fully forward and the approach
plate is on the ground. The weight of the trailer bed
should rest partly on approach plate and partly on
undercarriage. The object is to have the approach
plate resting on the ground whenever the center of
gravity of the trailer and load is behind the rear axle
of trailer. In loading position, the approach plate
should be resting on the ground and the
undercarriage fully forward.
CAUTION
WARNING
WARNING
6.
Winch or drive the load onto the trailer. Insure that
the load is steering straight up onto the semitrailer
and does not maneuver off the side of the trailer.
Continue until load center of gravity is just ahead of
the axles, if possible. The load should never place
more weight on the pintle hitch than on the rear axles
during loading and unloading.
CAUTION
WARNING
Do not allow the back trailer axle to leave the
ground. This can result in damage to the trailer.
In loading or unloading position, the approach
plate should be resting on the ground.
Always use low load angle to load and unload
powered products.
Maximum concentrated load in a 10 ft. area is
30,000 lbs.
1.
The trailer must be coupled to a tractor and
the landing gear raised off the ground before
operating.
2.
Do not exceed the gross axle weight ratings
for any axle on your vehicle. The combined
weight of the trailer and cargo must not
exceed the gross vehicle weight rating
(GVWR) of the trailer.
