Operator Instructions
Congratulations! You have just purchased the finest trailer on the road today.
This manual has been prepared to assist you in retaining the safety, dependability, and performance that has
been built into your
PRATT
trailer. It is essential that your trailer receives periodic inspections, maintenance, and
service parts replacements.
This manual includes periodic safety checks that the trailer operator should perform.
It is important that every trailer owner and/or operator have an organized Trailer Preventative Maintenance
program (TPM). The United States Department of Transportation requires by law that maintenance records be
kept on every commercial highway vehicle. It is to your advantage to be able to show that regularly scheduled
TPM inspection checks have been made on every piece of equipment operated.
To assist you in establishing your TPM program, a bill-of-material is included in the back of this manual,
which lists the major components unique to your trailer. Please refer to this list for ordering parts. etc.
Not only will a regular TPM program assure you that you will get the most from your
PRATT
trailer, but also
you may place yourself in a favorable legal position in the event of an accident involving this equipment.
You can get help in setting up and operating a trailer preventative maintenance program by sending for a
"Maintenance Manual for Trailers and Containers". Write to the Truck Trailer Manufacturers Association, 1020
Princess Street, Alexandria, Virginia 22314.
IMPORTANT
Read this manual carefully. Should you have any questions contact

is
sold.
