DANGER
KEEP ALL PERSONNEL CLEAR OF
FRONT, REAR, AND SIDES OF TOW-
ING VEHICLE AND SEMITRAILER DUR-
ING COUPLING, COMPONENT OPERA-
TIONS, AND UNCOUPLING. FAILURE
TO STAY CLEAR CAN RESULT IN SE-

3-3.1 Verify the semitrailer wheels are
chocked and brakes function properly.
3-3.2 Make certain the coupler of the towing
vehicle’s fifth wheel is open by pulling the
latch handle.
3-3.3 Slowly back the towing vehicle so its
fifth wheel contacts the front of the king pin

Continue backing until the fifth wheel coupler
locks onto the semitrailer kingpin.
CAUTION
PUSHING THE SEMITRAILER BACK-
WARDS CAN DAMAGE PARKING

3-3.4 Verify the vehicle coupling is secure by
attempting to pull the tractor forward a few
inches. If the tractor disconnects from the
semitrailer, locate source of coupling failure;
repair before continuing; and repeat
Section

3-3.5 Check that the towing vehicle couples
securely to the semitrailer before setting tow-
ing vehicle and semitrailer parking brakes.
