9. Air Cylinder Installation
Refer to Figure 20 for the following steps for air cylinder
installation:
1.
Install a bushing into the hole of the cam plate. Place
the 5/8" I.D. x 1-1/4" O.D. washer on the underside of
the cam plate, aligned with the bushing. Orient the air
cylinder so the air fitting port faces the cam springs (see
illustration) and position the air cylinder clevis over the
cam plate, bushing and washer, aligning the holes.
NOTE: Ensure that the air cylinder clevis in this step is
the one on the rod end of the air cylinder.
2.
Feed a M12 x 1.75 x 40 mm hex head cap screw up
through the aligned holes, and loosely secure with a
M12 x 1.75 lock nut. (The head of the cap screw MUST
be toward the fifth wheel top plate surface.)
3.
Install the remaining bushing into the hole of the
mounting tab on the casting and position the remaining
air cylinder clevis over it, aligning the holes.
4.
Feed the remaining M12 x 1.75 x 40 mm hex head cap
screw up through the aligned holes, with the head of
the cap screw toward the fifth wheel top plate surface,
and secure with the remaining M12 x 1.75 lock nut.
Complete installation of the air cylinder by tightening
the first lock nut.
