Installation Procedures
c. Align holes in the slide plate with
outboard angle mounting holes and
bolt using Grade 8 fasteners, hardened
steel washers and Grade C locknuts,
properly tightened (Figure 11). Use
all mounting holes on the fifth wheel.
4.3 Adjustment of Sliding Bracket
Locking Plungers
The slide locking plungers are given a
preliminary adjustment during factory
assembly. However, due to variations
introduced during mounting (such as frame
and material tolerances) a final adjustment
MUST be made at the time of installation.
Adjust the locking plungers
at installation, after one
month of service, and at
recommended maintenance
intervals by use of the
adjusting bolts provided on
both sides. Failure to do so
may result in accelerated
wear of components, lower
service life, improper load
transfer, or improper load
distribution.
To adjust locking plungers:
1. Loosen lock nut and turn adjusting bolt
out (Figure 12).
2. Disengage and engage the locking
plungers. Check that the plungers are
securely seated without binding.
3. Turn the adjusting bolt in until it contacts
the rack. Turn the bolt an additional 1/2
turn then tighten the locking nut securely.
Prior to proceeding with the installation of the
sliding fifth wheel assembly, carefully review
the "General Safety Information" on page 3.
