WARNING!
Danger of injury!
There is a danger of injury if body parts get crushed
when lowering the fifth wheel.
X Make sure that nobody is near the fifth wheel or near
the trailer.
X Make sure that the trailer is lowered fully onto its
supports and secured against rolling away.
X Loosen the hexagon socket screw with the Allan key (SW 5)
Do not loosen the securing element 2; this prevents the
hexagon socket screw from falling out.
