CHALLENGE SOLUTION
Cannot open the Release Handle. You may have too much rearward pressure against the lock
mechanism. Back your truck slightly to relieve pressure and
continue the unhitching procedures.
Plate seems dry – Can I use a Teon pad? No. The Trailer Plate does not allow for any extra space for a pad.
Since the turning action is no longer at the king pin, you will
have minimal friction. A light coating of WD-40 or a light oil is
sufcient.
Trailer overhang is hitting the truck bed rails when
the trailer and truck are at sharp angles.
Most trailer king pin boxes have height adjustment settings
available to achieve the necessary clearance between the
truck bed rails and the bottom of the trailer. Adjust accordingly.
The latch handle mechanism seems too stiff to
operate.
Turn the plate upside-down and spray the locking mechanism with
WD-40. Work the handle until it slides freely. If the problem
persists, you may need to degrease and re-lube all working
parts.
I have attempted to unhitch at an angle greater
than 16 degrees, truck to trailer and the hitch
will not release the King Pin.
Back into the King Pin, then using a probe, push the Lock Lever
forward until the Lock Catch allows the Lock Jaw Assembly
to rotate around the king pin. Retract the trailer jacks and
remove the wheel chocks. Maneuver the truck until it is lined
up within the 16 degree limit (see step 1 on pg. 9). Perform
unhitching steps 1-6 on page 10.
I need to have a professional evaluate my
SuperGlide.
