Operating Instructions
9. Operating Instructions
Before operating, check for worn, damaged,
or missing parts, and make sure mount
is secure.
If the pintle hook is not
secured to the mounting
surface, the pintle hook
could separate from the
vehicle which, if not
avoided, could result in
death or serious injury.
1. Unlock and remove the tethered lock
pin, if applicable (Figure 16).
2. Lift the lock handle away from the
vehicle until the lock clears the lock
seat on the hook body. Open the latch
by rotating the latch assembly up
toward the vehicle until the latch is in
its most upright position, then release
the lock handle. (Figure 17 and 18).
3. Position the drawbar eye over the horn of
the pintle hook and lower it into place.
4. Push the latch closed. When correctly
locked, the lock handle will rotate and
move up until it is flush with the top of
the latch (Figure 19).
5. Insert the tethered lock pin through the
latch and lock holes, and close the tethered
wire lock pin, if applicable (Figure 16).
Failure to correctly lock
the latch can result in
separation of the trailer
and vehicle which, if not
avoided, could result in
death or serious injury.
