    Awesome tutorial of coupling and uncoupling from the trailer. As a newer TA in training, all your videos and vlogs have become very helpful to me and I believe everyone else that watch your videos. Thank you again💯

    Sometimes the trailer is too low for your fifth wheel to get under... you can deflate your airbags to get under, after you slide under reinflate your airbags... this will pick your landing gear up off the ground... this will make the handle a lot easier to spin.

    • @blkcobra03
      @blkcobra03 Рік тому +2

      Also, when I drop a trailer, before pulling out from under it, I deflate the airbags so then when pulling out, there is NO drop of the trailer as you heard in this video.

      So weird that they only teach you how to pass a test and nothing outside of the test. Even at what I would describe as a "great" school, they showed me the process twice but never once had me do it.

    Your vlogs are always very interesting and helpful to understand about trucking operations. I like the way you cranked up / down the landing gears. Usually for some female drivers that's the tough job to accomplish. All the best & stay well.

    The trailer has three connections the power lead for the lights... and two Airlines the blue is for the service brake that's your foot pedal... and the red line is to add air to the trailer to release your spring brake.

    I always clear the landing legs from the ground before clicking in and doing a tug test even if just a inch or two so that theres no possibility of torqing on the landing legs and causing damage like i have seen alot of other drivers do

    • @briatrucking
      @briatrucking  Рік тому +1

      I’m happy to hear that my videos have been helpful for you! Offset backing can be tricky, but the key is to not overturn your steering wheel because you can lose sight of the trailer in your mirrors. Always take your time. Your instructor/examiner wants to see that you can back up properly and not by how fast you can finish. I wish you the best of luck!

    Okay, I have watched your video on Coupling & Uncoupling a tractor-trailer. I am a Certified Evaluator & Instructor, and I have driven trucks for almost 50 years.
    The name you were looking for is a "Pin Puller" to disconnect the 5th wheel.
    You get the Gist of it, there are many steps you have missed, and the fact you did not drop your airbags, is a No-No when you're Hooking or Unhooking. Don't get complacent with your hooking and unhooking. As for getting under, if you feel that the trailer could fall on you, then I would refuse the trailer, or you hooked up wrong, some how. You need to get under to be sure you are hooked up. It is NOT going to fall on you. Not bad, and I have seen better demonstrations, like I said, you get the Gist of it.

      Did she not also pull away too far.. the trailer was resting on the truck frame. Should it not rest on the rear part of 5 th wheel plate. Just a precaution in case landing gear is weak . And re hooking is required 🤔🤔
