    BACKUP WARNING SYSTEM A backup warning system consisting of an audible alarm is available as an option on your Timpte Bulk Commodity trailer. The system is intended to indicate that the vehicle is backing up.
  • Page 8: Control Of Safe Operation

    You, the operator, have the Greatest Control over Safe Operation. 1. You, the operator, have control of the most important factors that affect safe trailer opera- tion and vehicle stability. Trailers are a tool and, like any tool, are safe only when properly used by a conscientious, trained and qualified operator.
  • Page 9: Inspection Procedures Before Each Trip

    Failure to regularly inspect the trailer may also void the warranty. While it is ultimately the operator’s responsibility to properly perform and document the pre-trip inspection, Timpte provides the following recommendations and suggestions. TRAP DOOR LOCKS Check all trap door locks before each trip to insure that they are in proper working order. Any trap door components which show excessive wear should be replaced immediately.
  • Page 10: Lights And Reflectors

    Apply the trailer brakes and attempt to move the tractor forward to insure that the fifth wheel and king pin are positively locked. CAUTION! Plastic King Pin Liners (Lube Plate) cannot be installed onto Timpte Trailer upper coupler/king pin assemblies unless the trailer was purchased with that specifi- cation.
  • Page 11: Hub Maintenance

    HUB MAINTENANCE Check wheel studs for good condition – no stripped threads – no bent or loose studs. Replace any broken or bent studs or studs with damaged threads. When a broken stud is replaced, the stud on each side of it should be replaced at the same time. If more than two studs on the same hub are broken, replace all of the studs.
  • Page 12: Side Structures

    SIDE STRUCTURES Check the trailer sides for inconspicuous damage to the top and bottom rails as well as the side structure – cracks, contusions, sharp bends, ripples, or missing fasteners. Any problems ob- served in the side structure should be corrected immediately to prevent the damage from extend- ing further.
