Rear Of The Trailer; Inspecting The Coupling Status - Hyundai TRANSLEAD Original Operator's Manual

Rear of the trailer

Inspect the following on the exterior lights and door.
• Check if all lights are clean and working properly.
• Check if the doors are fully sealed and locked. If the doors are
not secured with locks or seals, make sure no one is in the
trailer.
• Check the door hinges for missing or damaged bolts/rivets.
• Check the rear impact guard for weld cracks, bent or broken
bracing, and a straight lower horizontal member. Make sure
the certification label or plate is in place.
• Check if the conspicuity tape is properly placed. Clean it if
there is any dust or contaminants.

Inspecting the coupling status

After completing the inspection of the tractor and the trailer,
check for the proper coupling status and ensure the overall
safety.
• While the trailer brakes are applied, release the tractor
parking brakes and engage the clutch in first gear to test the
tractor-trailer coupling.
• Ensure that there are no objects hanging from under the truck
or the trailer.
