5. With hitch head level, set trailer king pin box ½" to 1" below hitch so trailer will ride up and onto hitch. Back Up
the truck under the trailer so the king pin enters the hitch.
6. Rotate the handle of the hitch 180 degrees so that the handgrip is pointing straight up & pull the handle out until the
slide bar is held open by the king pin trip mechanism. The handle shaft has a red indicating sleeve to provide a
quick visual reference that the handle is not closed. You should also note that the green indicator pin is not
protruding from the side of the hitch head.
7. Slowly back the truck so that the bottom plate of the king pin box slides onto the 5th wheel plate & the king pin
slides fully into the throat of the hitch head. Set the parking brake of the truck & place the transmission into park.
8. Visually verify the slide bar has closed behind the king pin and the king pin box is resting on the 5th wheel plate.
Positively lock the slide bar by rotating the handle clockwise so the handgrip is pointing straight down at the bed of
the truck. The red indicator sleeve on the handle shaft should not be visible when correctly hitched up and the
green indicator shaft should be protruding from the side of the hitch head.

will result in high pinning and will result in hitch damage and possible vehicle damage, injury or death!

PRACTICE AND WILL RESULT IN THE KING PIN
SITTING ON TOP OF HITCH INSTEAD OF INSIDE. THE
TRAILER COULD THEN BECOME DETACHED FROM
THE TRUCK DURING TOWING CAUSING SERIOUS
DAMAGE AND POSSIBLY INJURY OR DEATH.
