General Information
IMPORTANT: Refer to the Holland web site
(

tion.
The Holland trailer coupling is designed for use with
trailers having a maximum gross weight of 10,000 lb.
(4540 kg) for Holland PH-10RP41 and PH-10RP51,
or 30,000 lb. (13,610 kg) for Holland PH-30RP41 and

on tractor applications, and is fastened to the rear
closing crossmember of the vehicle. It is a non-air-
adjusted coupling. See
Fig. 21.1 and Fig. 21.2.
Trailer Hookup
1.
Chock the front and rear tires of the trailer.
2.
Remove the lock pin (if equipped), then lift the
lock handle and raise the latch.
3.
Back up the vehicle until the drawbar eye is over
the pintle hook.
4.
Lower the trailer, until the drawbar eye rests on
the pintle hook.
5.
Push the latch closed, then insert the lock pin (if
equipped).
NOTICE
Always make sure the connection hanger keeps
the trailer air hoses and electrical cables posi-
tioned so that they do not rub on anything. Rub-
bing may wear through hoses or cables, resulting
in air leaks, or exposed or broken wires, poten-
tially affecting trailer brake or electrical systems.
6.
Connect the trailer electrical and air lines.
Trailer Release
1.
Apply the tractor and trailer parking brakes.
WARNING
Do not use the trailer air supply for parking trail-
ers not equipped with spring parking brakes.
This applies the trailer service brakes only. As air
bleeds from the trailer brake system, brake appli-
cation is lost. This could allow the unattended
vehicle to roll away, possibly resulting in serious
personal injury or death.
2.
Chock the front and rear tires of the trailer.
3.
Disconnect the trailer air and electrical lines.
Plug the air lines to keep them free of dirt.
4.
Take the weight of the trailer drawbar off the
pintle hook.
5.
Open the latch by removing the lock pin (if
equipped), then lift up the lock and raise the
latch.
6.
Slowly drive the vehicle away from the trailer.
