4 Operation
4.4 Manual opening in an emergency if the remote control
fails
If the pneumatic opening mechanism is not functioning or in an
emergency, the locking mechanism can be opened manually. We
recommend wearing work gloves to make this easier. Two persons
are required for this process.
The manufacturer of the vehicle body is responsible for ensuring
that the user has access and sufficient room to open the fifth wheel
coupling in an emergency. The vehicle owner is responsible for
equipping the vehicle with the necessary tools and instructing dri-
vers on the emergency opening procedure.
Recommended tools
