Operation Procedures
4. Extend the landing gear until the pads just touch the
ground (Figure 24).
Failure to operate the landing gear within
the maximum extension or retraction
including repeated winding to its physical
stops could, if not avoided, cause damage
to the landing gear.
Failure to maintain two hand control of
the handle and release SLOWLY could
cause spring back which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
5. Shift the landing gear into low gear and secure the crank
handle in the crank hanger (Figure 25).
Failure to secure the crank handle in low gear
when NOT in use could, allow unplanned
landing gear operation which, if not
avoided, could result in property damage.
6. Per the manufacturer's instructions, release the fifth
wheel, disconnect the air lines and the electrical cord.
Release the tractor brakes. Slowly drive away from the
trailer until the fifth wheel disengages from the kingpin
but remains under the trailer.
7. Engage the tractor parking brake. Get out and inspect
the landing gear and the support surface for proper
trailer support.
Failure to properly support the trailer
could result in trailer instability which, if
not avoided, could result in death, serious
injury or property damage.
8. Complete the uncoupling procedures per the fifth wheel,
tractor, and trailer manufacturer's recommendations.
