5. Use only the method described above for hitching.
Do not attempt to hitch by using trailer jacks to lower trailer and king pin. This could result in king pin
coming to rest on top of skid plate instead of within hitch opening where jaws are located. King pin could
slide off hitch and trailer could drop, resulting in death or serious injury (See Fig. 13).
