4700 d 18.03.000
Before using the air valve to unlock a fifth wheel kingpin, prepare the trailer as follows.
- Set the tractor and trailer parking brakes.
- Chock the rear trailer tires.
- Lower the trailer landing gear until the weight is removed from the fifth wheel.
- Disconnect the tractor-to-trailer air lines and electrical cable. Plug the air lines to prevent dirt or foreign material from entering the lines.
