12. Operation Check
1.
To check operation of the fifth wheel, use HOLLAND lock
tester (Part No. TF-TLN-5001) to close the fifth wheel
locks. Verify that the locks are properly closed around the
lock tester. Activate the fifth wheel release switch and
remove the lock tester. Repeat this step three (3) times to
verify proper operation (Figure 29).
NOTE: HOLLAND lock tester (Part No. TF-TLN-5001) is
available from a local HOLLAND distributor.
NOTE: To operate a TF-TLN-5001 lock tester, refer to
Document No. XL-FW10082ST-en-US, available
on the internet at www.safholland.us, which
contains specific lock tester instructions.
After three (3) successful operational checks, the fifth wheel
will be ready for operation.
IMPORTANT: Before using the fifth wheel, visually
inspect all components of the fifth
wheel for proper operation while
coupling and uncoupling the fifth wheel
with the lock tester.
Failure to repair an improperly operating
fifth wheel could result in tractor-trailer
separation which, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.
IMPORTANT: Be sure to read and understand the fifth
wheel operation instructions published
in Document No. XL-FW20135UM-en-US
(XA-351-TT and XA-351-UBT Owner's
Manual) available on the internet at
www.safholland.us prior to use.
Failure to read and understand fifth
wheel operation instructions prior to use
could result in improper operation of the
fifth wheel which, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.
