DESCRIPTION AND CHARACTERISTICS

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

1. This trailer, of 20-ton capacity, may be used as a full

trailer (figure 1) and be drawn by a heavy-duty truck, or as a

semi-trailer (figure 3) and be drawn by a truck-tractor. Two vehi-

cles comprise the trailer, the main unit or trailer proper and a

dolly truck (figure 4) on which the trailer front end may be mount-

ed for use as a full trailer. Two loading ramps are supplied tto

facilitate loading and unloading of equipment to be hauled.

2. Designed to travel on highways, ability of this trailer to

travel cross country depends upon the tractive ability of the tow-

ing unit.

3. The trailer model number, LKD-620, as well as the aerial

number, is stamped on a plate located at the front of the left main

frame side rail.

AXLE-Front

1. The front axle is a solid alloy steel bar, with spindles

ground to accurate limits.

2. Axle and wheels are equipped with heavy duty tapered rol-

ler bearings. Simple adjustments of the bearings are made through

an adjusting nut.

AXLESRear

Hear axles are trunnion mounted, of the oscillating type.

are equipped with heavy-duty tapered roller bearings, which can b*

adjusted through an adjusting nut, a hardened tongue washer and a

lock nut.

DRAWBAR LOCKING DEVICE

The drawbar is equipped with a pin which, when inserted in a

bole in the drawbar mounting bracket, provides a means of locking

the drawbar rigid to facilitate backing the dolly. (See figure 4.)

AIR BRAKE EQUIPMENT

1. The air brake equipment provides a means of operating the

brakes through the medium of compressed air, and in conjunction

with the air brake system on the vehicle towing the trailer. Fun-

damentally, the trailer air brake system consists of the air de-

vices necessary to direct and control the flow of compressed air,

and those necessary to transform the energy of the compressed air

into mechanical force and motion to apply the brakes.

2. The trailer air brake system includes air connections at

the front so it can be connected to the air brake system of the

vehicle towing the trailer.

18 OPERATORS MANUAL

SECTION 3

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS AND CONTROLS

Controls are employed according to the usual trailer-truck

combination practice. The driver must become thoroughly familiar

with the location and use of all control devices before attempting

to operate the vehicles.

HAND BRAKE

The parking brake handwheel is located on the right side of

the trailer at the drop in the frame. Turning the wheel applies

the brakes. The hand brake can be used as a parking brake, or as

a supplement to the truck brakes when descending extremely steep

grades with a heavy load. (See figure 8.)

LIGHT CONNECTION

The trailer Is equipped with a coupling socket (figure 9) in

the center of the front cross member of the frame. A Jumper cable

(figure 10) for connection to the towing vehicle is a trailer ac-

cessory.

BLACKOUT SWITCH

1. The blackout switch (figure 9 ) Is located on the front

cross member of the main frame. It has no "OTF" position. It is

either at a blackout position or at a, standard light position.

2. The switch is operated by means of a coin or a screwdriver,

while the flow of current is controlled at the towing vehicle.

TIRE CARRIER

The tire carrier (figure 49) is located behind the front cross

member of the lower deck, while the carrier operating shaft pro-

trudes through that cross member.(figure 8). By removing the stud

nuts on the spare tire, and releasing the catch on the operating

shaft ratchet, the tire will fall to the ground. The tire is raised

to the carrier by means of cables operated by turning the operating

shaft with the socket tire wrench on the shaft nut.

OPERATORS MANUAL 19

AIR BRAKE OPERATION

1. The trailer air brake system is kept charged to the same

pressure as the air brake system of the towing vehicle because air

pressure can always flow from the reservoir on the towing vehicle

through the emergency line, through the relay-emergency valve, to

the reservoir on the trailer.

2. When the driver applies the brakes, air pressure, control-

led by the brake valve on the towing vehicle, flows through the

service line to the relay-emergency valve. This causes the relay-

emergency valve to react and permit the same air pressure to flow

from the trailer* reservoir to the trailer brake chambers applying

the brakes. The relay-emergency valve always reacts in this man-

ner, and permits the same air pressure to be delivered to the

trailer brake chambers as the brake valve on the towing vehicle de-

livers to the relay-emergency valve. It is, therefore, possible

for the driver to control the air pressure in the trailer brake

chambers, and in this way control the trailer brakes. The far-

ther the brake valve on the towing vehicle is moved toward fully

applied position,, the higher the air pressure delivered to the

trailer brake chambers and the more severe the brake application.

3. In the event the trailer breaks away from the towing

vehicle, the relay-emergency valve reacts to prevent air pressure

in the trailer reservoir from escaping out the broken hose line,

and, at the same time, it opens common!cation between the trailer

reservoir and the trailer brake chambers. Under these conditions,

the brakes on the trailer are applied automatically.

COUPLING THE TRAILER TO ITS DOLLY

1. Securely block the rear wheels of the trailer to prevent

its shifting.

2. Set the hand brake.

3. Adjust the screw jacks so that the trailer's fifth wheel

plate is two or three inches lower than the dolly fifth wheel.

4. Set the dolly drawbar in its locked position and connect

to a truck or other prime mover.

5. Back the dolly carefully under the trailer gooseneck until

the trailer king t>in is in position in the dolly fifth wheel.

6. Disconnect the drawbar lock.

7. With the dolly still connected to the prime mover, back

the dolly until the trailer king pin is firmly engaged in the fifth

wheel.

SO OPERATORS MANUAL

8. Haise the screw Jacks, fastening them in position with

chains provided for that purpose .

9. Remove the dolly air hose connection from its hanger at

the rear of the dolly frame and connect it to the air hose coupling

bslow the gooseneck on the main unit frame (figure 8); open the

cut-out cock.

COUPLING FULL TRAILER TO TOWING VEHICLE

1. Place the lunette eye of the drawbar in a pintle hook on

the towing vehicle and lock it in position by means of the pin pro-

vided for that purpose.

2. Attach the hook ends of the drawbar safety chains to eyes

or other means provided on the rear of the towing vehicle.

3. Connect the juniper cable between the trailer and towing

vehicle, placing one end in the socket at the front of the trailer

main frame and the other in the socket provided at the rear of the

towing vehicle.

4. Bemove the dummy couplings from the hose couplings on the

trailer, and connect hose lines between the towing vehicle and the

trailer, being careful to see that the service line on the towing

vehicle is connected to the service line on the trailer, and that

the emergency line on the towing vehicle is connected to the emer-

gency line on the trailer. Identification tags are mounted on all

vehicles so the connections can be easily identified.

5. Open the cut-out cocks in the outlets on the towing

vehicle. Cut-out cocks are open when the handle is at a right

angle to the line. Open cut-out cocks permit the air brake system

on the trailer to be charged, making the trailer brakes ready to

operate.

6. Check the operation of the brakes, before the vehicles are

moved, by making a brake application and observing that the trailer

brakes apply and release properly.

7. Release the parking brake by releasing its ratchet catch

and turning the Wheel.

8. Bemove the blocking from the trailer rear wheels.

COUPLING SEMI-TRAILER TO TRUCK-TRACiOR

1. Securely block the rear wheels of the trailer to prevent

its shifting.

2. Set the hand brake.

3. Adjust the screw jacks so that the trailer's fifth wheel

plate la two or three inches lower than the truck-tractor's fifth

wheel.

4. Back the truck-tractor carefully under the trailer goose-

neck until the trailer king pin is engaged in the tractor's fifth

wheel.

5. Baise the screw jacks, fastening them in idle position

with the chains provided for that purpose.

6. Connect the jumper cable and the air system hose lines and

follow the general procedure outlined in paragraphs three through

eight under "Coupling Full Trailer to Towing Vehicle," page 20-

DRIVING TOWING VEHICLE AND TRAILER

1. The truck and trailer combination is driven in much the

same manner as the straight truck. When turning corners, it should

he remembered that the rear wheels turn "inside" the turning radius

of the truck.

2. Test the operation of the trailer brakes before traveling

at full speed. Air supply on the dash gauge should not be less

than 60 pounds for proper brake application.

3. Test the operation of the trailer lights.

BRAKING TOWING VEHICLE AND TRAILER

1. The trailer and towing vehicle brakes should be applied in

coordination. The trailer brakes should not be expected to carry

the entire load of the trailer and towing vehicle, or rapid lining

wear and reduced life of the trailer brakes will occur.

2. Trailer brakes should be applied easily and released when

they grab. A grabbing brake is not operating with maximum effi-

ciency. For maximum efficiency, keep the tires just short of the

skidding point.

3. When the trailer is parked for a considerable period, set

the hand brake.

UNCOUPLING FULL TRAILER FROM ITS DOLLY

1. Set the trailer hand or parking brake.

2. Block the rear wheels of the trailer.

3. Place the screw jacks ir. position to support the main unit

frame, and raise the jacks sufficiently to take some of the weight

off the dolly.

4. Close the cut-out cock below the gooseneck of the main

unit frame and disconnect the dolly air hose connection from it;

p1ece the air hose coupling on the hanger provided at the rear of

the dolly frame.

5. Disconnect the jumper cable from the towing vehicle.

6. Shut off both cut-out cocks - Service and Emergency - at

the towing vehicle.

7. Uncouple the two air lines at the front of the trailer.

Take care to prevent hose couplings from dragging in the dirt.

8. Couple the dummy hose couplers to the emergency and ser-

vice lines on the trailer. These dummy couplers should be in place

at all times the trailer is not in use to prevent entrance of for-

eign matter into the braking system.

NOTE: Disconnecting the trailer should automa-

tically apply the brakes on the trailer, but

the trailer should never be parked when there

is danger of it moving should the air pressure

leak off and the brakes release. The parking

brake should be set or the wheels blocked to

prevent the trailer from moving.

9. Open the fifth wheel lock holding the main unit king pin .

10. With the prime mover, carefully pull the dolly from under

the main unit .

UNCOUPLING DOLLY FROM TOWING VEHICLE

1. Block the dolly so that it does not move over the ground

and so that it does not pivot on its axle.

2. Disconnect the dolly safety ch&ins from the towing vehicle.

3. Disconnect the drawbar eye from the pintle hook on the

towing vehicle.

4. pull the towing vehicle ahead until the two units are sep-

arated.

ted in paragraphs five through eight under "Uncoupling Full Trailer

From Its Dolly."

5. Open the tractor's fifth wheel lock holding the trailer

king pin.

6. Pull the tractor ahead until the two units are separated.

RELEASING BRAKES AFTER AUTOMATIC OPERATION

If the trailer brakes have been automatically applied by dis-

connecting the trailer from the towing vehicle, and it is necessary

to release the brakes without again connecting the trailer to the

towing vehicle, release all air pressure from the trailer air brake

system through the reservoir drain cock.

ABNORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS

Mud, Water, Sand, and Dust

After operating the trailer tkrough mud, water, sand, and dust,

it is recommended that the wheel bearings, brakes, and air brake

equipment be inspected. Refer to section 4, page 24, for routine

inspection.

Extreme Heat and Cold Weather

When operating the trailer in extreme heat or cold weather trail-

er should be inspected as outlined in section 4, page 24.

INSPECTION, LUBRICATION AND ADJUSTMENT

INSPECTION

Trailers should be systematically inspected at regular inter-

vals to insure mechanical efficiency.

Before Starting

1. Make sure the parking brake is released, and that the ser-

vice and emergency air hoses are properly connected.

2. Check the inflation of tires, and examine for casing in-

juries.

3. Make sure the jumper cable is connected to the sockets on

both the trailer and the towing vehicle; check operation of lights

in both standard and blackout positions.

4. Check to see if tools and equipment are in good order.

5. Make sure the lunette eye on the drawbar is properly hook-

ed in the pintle hook of the towing vehicle.

6. Check to be sure safety chains are hooked to the towing

vehicle.

7. Be sure the trailer king pin is properly engaged in thf

dolly fifth wheel or tractor fifth wheel.

8. If a full trailer is being used, be sure the air brake

system cut-out cock under the gooseneck of the main frame is open.

During Operation

1. The operator should be alert to detect unusual sounds,

noises or driving characteristics that indicate abnormal function-

ing of the unit.

2. Only under exceptional circxanstances should a trailer be

operated after indications of trouble have been observed. When in

doubt, the vehicle should be stopped and the trouble remedied.

After Operation

1. Carefully inspect the trailer to determine its general

mecnanicai condition. Inspection should be followed by preventive

maintenance.

2. Check springs and spring hangers to make sure no failure

has occurred.

3. Check the axle and axle U-bolts.

4. Check the wheel studs; tighten any loose stud nuts.

5. Inspect the frame for any cracks; weld if necessary.

6. Check the condition of the spare wheel and tire; secure a

replacement if necessary.

7. Drain the moisture from the reserve air tank, opening the

pet cock at the bottom of the tank.

LUBRICATION

1 The lubrication chart ( figures 11-11A-11B ) gives information

on the points of lubrication, the period, and the type of lubricant.

The sa-ae information, together with the method of lubrication, is

given pictorially on pages 26 - 31.

Wheel Bearing Lubrication

1. Tirea and wheels must be removed for lubrication 01 vsftieel

bearings. The procedure for wheel disassembly is discussed on page

46.

2. When wheels are removed, clean the hubs, axle spindles and

bearings with solvent, dry cleaning or oil, fuel, Diesel. Pack grease

( WB No. 2) into bearings with a paddle or the hands, and coat spin-

dle lightly to prevent rust. Wheel bearings should be repacked ev-

ery 5,000 miles under ordinary conditions, and more often under ex-

treme conditions of mud, sand or dust.

CAUTION: When reassembling the wheel, do not

fill hubs with grease; excess grease will work

against the grease retainers and enter the

brake area, seriously affecting brake action

and spoiling the brake linings. Take care not

to make the bearing adjusting nut too tight, or

bearings will heat and burn out. Tighten the

adjusting nut until the wheel binds, then re-

verse it until the wheel turns freely. Ordi-

narily a quarter- or half-turn backward will be

enough. Be sure the adjusting nut is locked

securely.

5. Use a steel tape to measure the distance from the center

punch mark on the drawbar to the outer end of the axle spindle on

both sides. If the measurement is identical, the axle is in align-

ment .

NOTE: Bushings of the drawbar must be tight to

obtain an accurate check of axle alignment.

Bushing replacement procedure is given on page 81

6. If an adjustment of axle alignment is necessary, remove

the hex nut and tongue washer from the front end of the radius rod.

7. Hemove the cotter nin, castellated nut and bolt holding

the radius rod swivel (figure 15) to the spring hanger; slip out

the bolt and rubber bushings, releasing the swivel from the hanger.

8. Swing the radius rod dorm and remove the swivel bracket.

9. Insert or remove spacer washers, as required, between the

rod collar and the swivel bracket.

10. Reinstall the radius rod, reversing removal procedure.

NOTK: It is seldom necessary to adjust more

than one radius rod to obtain axle alignment.

1. Dual wheels with tires on the front or dolly axle and on.

the rear or trunnion axles are removed in the same manner.

NOTE: When the four wheels are to be removed

from a rear trunnion axle, it is advisable to

remove the tires inside the frame first. Os-

cillation of the axle makes removal of wheels

from the inner end of the axle difficult if un-

dertaken after removal of the wheels from the

outer end of the axle.

2. To raise the dolly wheels sufficient to clear the ground,

lower the Jacks at both sides of the main unit frame and jack up

the front end of the trailer with its dolly. Block the dolly to

prevent its turning on the king pin.

CAUTION: Block the rear wheels of the trailer

to prevent movement of the unit. Place block-

SECTION 5

AIR BRAKE SYSTEM

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE

1. Monthly, or after each 1,000 miles.

a. Check travel of brake chamber push rods and adjust

brakes if necessary. Push rod travel should toe kept at the mini-

mixn without "brakes dragging.

(1) Adjust all brakes by turning the adjusting

screw on the end of each slack adjuster worm shaft. All slack ad-

justers are fitted with a friction type lock arrangement so the ad-

justment is automatically locked.

(2) Jack up each wheel, and make the adjustment as

close as possible without the brakes, dragging.

(3) After proper adjustment and with the brakes ap-

plied, the slack adjuster arm and the brake chamber push rod should

form an angle slightly less than 90 degrees, and all slack adjus-

ters on the trailer should be at this same angle.

b. Bemove drain plugs and drain air line filters.

c. Inspect all hose assemblies for abrasions, swelling

or other damage. Beplace if necessary.

d. Inspect all hose coupling gaskets for abrasions,

swelling or other damage. Beplace if necessary.

e. Test air brake system for serviceability.

2. Every Six Months, or after 6,000 miles.

a. Bemove covers from air line filters and inspect con-

dition of strainers. Clean or replace if necessary.

b. Bemove grease plugs and lubricate all slack adjusters

with chassis lubricant, using a grease gun. One or two shots

should be sufficient.

CAUTION: Do not operate grease gun too long,

otherwise the pressure of the grease may dis-

tort the cover plates or even break the rivets

and force the cover plates off the slack ad-

juster body.

c. Inspect all tubing and fittings for damage. It is

important that tubing not be collapsed or dented at any point as

this restricts the flow of air and affects the operation of the air

brake equipment. Henlace all damaged tubing or tubing fittings.

d. Test all air brake devices in the air brake system

for serviceability.

TESTING FOR SERVICEABILITY

1. Cotaplete Air Brake System. (See figure 27.)

a. Connect the trailer air brake system to the air brake

system of the towing vehicle. (See page 20-) Start the engine, if

necessary, to charge both air brake systems to 100 pounds, as reg-

istered by the dash gauge on the towing vehicle.

b. Leakage tests.

(1) With the engine stopped and the brakes re-

leased, observe the rate of drop in air pressure registered by the

dash gauge on the towing vehicle. The rate of drop in air pres-

sure should not exceed three pounds per minute.

.(2) With the engine stopped and brakes fully ap-

plied, observe the rate of drop in air pressure registered by the

dash gauge. The rate of drop in air pressure should not exceed

four pounds per minute.

(3) Leakage in either of the above tests is the

combined leakage in the air brake system on the towing vehicle and

the air brake system on the trailer. Leakage in the trailer air

brake system is determined by comparing the leakage in the above

tests with the leakage found in similar tests with the cut-out

cocks in the hose lines connecting the towing vehicle to the trail-

er closed.

(4) If leakage in either of the above tests is ex-

cessive, check all devices and connections for leakage, and repair

or replace the leaking device or connection.

c. Operating teats.

(1) With the vehicles moving, apply the brakes and

check their effectiveness. Check for quick braking response on all

wheels during application and release of the brakes.

(2) With the vehicles stopped, close the cut-out

cock in the emergency line at the rear of the towing vehicle. Dis-

connect emergency hose line from the trailer. Check to be sure all

trailer brakes apply automatically without any noticeable leakage

at the emergency line hose coupling at the front of the trailer, or

at the relay-emergency valve.

(3) Beconnect the emergency hose line and open the

emergency line cut-out cock at the rear of the towing vehicle. The

trailer brakes should release automatically.

(4) If the brake system fails to pass any of the

above operating tests, check all units for serviceability.

2. Balay-Energency Valve. (See figure 28.)

a. Operating teats.

(1) With the air brake system charged, apply the

brakes and check to be sure all brakes apply properly.

(2) Release brakes and check to be sure air pres-

sure is exhausted promptly from the exhaust port of the relay-emer-

gency valve, through the exhaust check valve.

el should remain the same as it was after adjustment. If the push

rod travel increases, or if difficulty is experienced in keeping

the brakes adjusted in service, the slack adjuster must be re-

placed.

5. Air Filter. (See figure 31.)

a. Operating tests.

(1) Remove cover and inspect the condition of the

air strainer. Curled hair strainers should be washed in cleaning

solvent and dried before being replaced. Cotton type strainers

must be cleaned by carefully brushing dust or dirt off the outside.

If either type of strainer is covered with an oily or gummy de-

posit, a new strainer must be installed. When assembling filters,

a new gasket must be used. Cotton strainers may be used to replace

curled hair strainers.

(2) The frequency of cleaning the filter, or re-

placing the strainer, depends entirely upon the operating condi-

tions and the amount of dirt passing into the filter.

b. Leakage tests.

(1) With the brakes applied, coat the outside of

the filter with soap suds to check for leakage. No leakage is per-

missible. If any leakage is found through the walls of the filter,

the filter must be replaced. If leakage is found past the gasket

batween the cover and the body of the filter, the cover should be

tightened or a new gasket installed.

defective diaphragm, the diaphragm must be replaced. If leakage Is

caused by a damaged diaphragm seat, the complete exhaust check

valve must be replaced.

7. Drain Cock. (See figure 33.)

a. Leakage tests.

(1) With the air brake system fully charged, test

for leakage past the key, using soap suds. Also check for leakage

through the body by coating the outside of the drain cock with soap

suds.

(2) Leakage in excess of a three-inch soap bubble

in three seconds is not permissible.

(3) Leakage will be caused by a dirty or damaged

key or body. Leakage due to dirt can be corrected by cleaning and

applying a thin coating of cup grease to the key before assembling.

Leakage due to a damaged key or body cannot be repaired, and the

drain cock must be replaced.

8. Beservoir. (See figure 34.)

a. Leakage test.

(1) With the brake system charged, coat the outside

of the reservoir with soap suds to check for leakage. No leakage

is permissible. If any leakage is found, the reservoir must be re-

placed.

,b. Inspection.

(1) Inspect the inside and outside surfaces , for

damage or corrosion. A small flashlight is helpful when inspecting

the interior. If any damage or corrosion is found that would weak-

(6) Position the new gasket over the end of the

guide in the connector body so the side with removal protector cov-

ering is next to the hose. Hemove the protector covering from the

gasket .

(7) Put the end of the hose in the connector body,

making sure the end of the hose and the gasket are against the bot-

tom of the recess in the connector body.

(8) Move the sleeve until it is against the edge of

the connector body. Tighten the connector nut. It is only neces-

sary to tighten the nut sufficiently to insure an air-tight joint.

(9) Then installing a hose assembly, where both

ends are permanently connected, the hose connector at either end is

used as a swivel by loosening the nut on one of the connectors. The

hose is then turned in the loose connector before the connector nut

is again tightened. This permits the installation of the hose as-

sembly without the hose being kinked or twisted.

10. Hose Couplings and Dummy Couplings. (See figures 37 and

38.)

a. Leakage tests.

(1) With the hose couplings connected, cut-out

cocks opened, and brakes applied, coat the hose couplings all over

with soap suds. There should be no leakage.

(2) Leakage is usually caused by worn, damaged or

improperly installed gaskets. To correct leakage, install a new

gasket .

(3) Old gaskets should be removed by prying them

out with a screwdriver.

(4) Before attempting to install a new gasket, be

sure the groove in the coupling in which the gasket fits is thor-

oughly cleaned; otherwise it is impossible to properly install a

new gasket .

groove in the coupling. Then use a blunt nose screwdriver or some

similar instrument to push the gasket into place. When properly

installed, the exposed face of the gasket is flat and not twisted

or bulged at any point.

11. Tubing and Tubing Fittings. (See figures 39 and 40.)

a. Operating tests.

(1) If any evidence is found indicating that a tub-

ing line might be restricted, it must be removed and air blown

through it in both directions to be sure the passage through the

tubing is clear and not obstructed in any way.

(2) Tubing should also be inspected for partial re-

strictions such as may be caused by dents or kinks. Tubing having

dents or kinks must be replaced.

b. Leakage tests.

(1) With the air brake system fully charged and

brakes applied, coat all tubing lines and fittings with soap suds

to check for leakage. Ho leakage is permissible. leakage at the

tubing fitting is sometimes corrected by tightening the tubing fit-

ting nut. If this fails to correct the leakage,the tubing fitting,

or both, must be replaced. If any leakage is found in the tubing,

a new piece of tubing must be installed.

use tubing having the same inside and outside diameter as the piece

being replaced.

(3) Cut tubing to required length with a hack saw

or tubing cutter. As the cut is made, make sure the end of the

tubing is smooth and that it is cut squarely with the outside wall.

Also, be sure the ends of the tubing are not crimped or partially

closed. Beam or file the ends of the tubing, if necessary.

(3) Blow out tubing with an air hose to remove all

cuttings and filings. This is very important.

(4) Place the nut and sleeve on the tubing and put

the end of the tubing in the recess in the tubing fitting body.

(5) Hold the tubing at the bottom of the recess and

tighten the nut to seal the Joint against leakage. It is only

necessary to tighten the nut until sufficient pressure is placed on

the sleeve to prevent leakage. Always use a new sleeve when repla-

cing tubing lines. Tubing fitting nuts and todies may be used again

provided they are in serviceable condition.

12. quick Release Valve. (See figure 41.)

a. Operating tests.

(1) Apply brakes and observe that iftien the brakes

are released, air pressure is quickly exhausted through the exhaust

port of the valve. Be sure the exhaust port is not restricted in

any way.

b. Leakage tests.

(1) With the brakes applied, coat the exhaust port

with soap suds to detect leakage. Leakage in excess of a three-

inch soap bubble in three seconds is not permissible. If excessive

leakage is found, the quick release valve must be replaced.

13. Cut-Out Cock. (See figure 42.)

a. Operating tests.

(1) Cut-out cocks are open when the handle is at a

93-deg,ree angle with the body of the cock, and closed when the han-

dle is parallel with the body of the cock. Stops are provided so

the handle cannot be turned beyond its normal open or closed posi-

tions.

(2) Cut-out cocks should always be opened and

closed by hand. The handle should never be struck with a hammer or

any auch heavy instrument, otherwise the cock will be damaged and

leakage will develop.

(3) When installing or removing cut-out cocks, or

when connecting hose lines to them, be sure to use the wrench on

the end of the cut-out cock being tightened. Any severe strain put

on the cut-out cock body, due to using the wrench on the wrong end

of the body, will distort the body and cause leakage.

b. Leakage teats.

line disconnected), check for leakage through the body by coating

the outside of the cut-out cock with soap suds.

(3) Leakage in excess of a three-inch soap bubble

In three seconds in either of these tests is not permissible.

(4) Leakage is caused by a dirty or scored key or

"body. Leakage due to dirt can be corrected by cleaning and apply-

ing a light coating of cup grease on the key before assembly. Leak-

age due to a scored key or body cannot be repaired and the cut-out

cock must be replaced.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

Inasmuch as the air brake system on a trailer is dependent up-

on the air brake system of the towing vehicle for its air supply

and control, the air brake system of the towing vehicle must be in

good condition to obtain good brake performance on the trailer.

Before condemning the air brake system on a trailer, always check

to be sure the air brake system on the towing vehicle ia function-

ing properly.

The following trouble chart will be helpful ia tracing defic-

iencies in the air brake system:

SECTION 6

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND LIGHTS

The electrical circuits uaed on this treiler are illustrated

in the general electrical circuit diagram, figure 43. This diagram

should be used to trace the various circuits for wiring replacement

or repair. Electrical units are shown on the diagram in their rel-

ative position, and each wire in the system is of distinctive color

with, the key given in the diagram.

The lighting equipment includes two amber and two red clear-

ance lamps, two red and two blue blackout lamps, one combination

blackout stop and tail light and one combination service stop and

tail light and blackout tail lamp.

Lights Blackout Stop and Tail

1. The combination service stop and tail light and blackout

tail lamp is located at the left-band rear of the trailer, while

the combination blackout stop and blackout tail light is at the

right-hand rear.

2. The lens of each blackout tail lamp is designed to produce

two beams, so directed that when one vehicle is following.another

vehicle at a specified safe distance the two beams merge into a

single high visible beam.

3. To obtain the accuracy necessary to insure this effect,the

bulb is soldered to the lens retainer, and the lens and filter are

crimped to the retainer to form a complete unit. When the bulb

burns out, it is necessary to replace the complete bulb unit. (See

figure 44.)

Clearance Lamps

1. The service procedure on standard clearance lamos and

blackout clearance lamps is identical.

2. To replace a lens, turn the two screws (figure 44) that

hold the lens housing to the lamp about three-quarters of the way

78 MAINTENANCE MANUAL

SECTION 7

TRAILER FRAME

The rugged design of the frame of this trailer makes repairs

infrequent, taring collision or major accident which may result in

tent or twisted crossmembers.

BENT FRAME MEMBERS

1. A heavy I-'beam, jacks and chains may be used to straighten

a bent frame member, providing the distortion is not too severe.

The bent frame member may be heated to a dull red to facilitate

shaping, but care should be taken to prevent excessive heating that

would weaken the structural characteristics of the frame member.

2. Severely bent and twisted frame members should be cut out

and replaced.

3. Ihen replacing a bent section of a frame member, cut

across the outside of the damaged section at a 30-degree angle, in-

sert the section to be spliced in, and weld. The 30-degree angle

will provide a mend over a greater area and result in a stronger

weld.

a. Back up the spliced joints with plate or channel re-

inforcements extending about six inches on each side of the joint

on the inner side of the channel.

b. Place a one-inch diameter hole in every four square

inches of the splice plate or channel, and plug weld at these

point s.

NOT3: The plug welding hole should be welded

solid with bare welding rod, and coated rod

should be used for the remainder of the welding.

SPRINGS

Removal

1. Springs may be removed with the dolly connected or discon-

nected from the main unit frame.

MAINTENANCE MANUAL

a. If the dolly iB left connected, lower the screw jacks

at both sides of the main unit frame and raise the trailer until

tires of the wheels on the side to be serviced just clear the

ground and the weight on the other side is almost entirely off the

ifoeels. Block the dolly to avoid accident in the event of jack

failure, and to prevent the dolly from swinging on the king pin .

b. If the dolly is disconnected, jack it up so that the

tires of the wheels on the side to be serviced just clear the

ground. Securely block the dolly.

2. Bemove the tire and wheels as assemblies. (See page 46.)

3. Place blocking under the axle at the end being serviced to

prevent the axle from dropping when spring U-bolts are removed.

4. Bemove the hex lock nuts and regular nuts from the U-bolta

binding the springs to be removed, releasing the suring tie olate

just under the axle.
