Misses an awful lot !

Passed my class 1 in 1976, there were 3 classes then, 1 artics, 2 multi axle rigid, and 3 was 2 axle rigid, most British lorries were 3 line air, never had air suspension so could not be raised for coupling, and trailer brake was a ratchet handle or wined on brake in front of trailer axles, and not many sleeper cabs around

Helpful and informative video...thanks from Ireland

Always need realise the trailer brak before moving?

Does anybody, when hooking up to the trailer, after checking unit and trailer height and a walk round of the trailer, parking break, ect. Then lower rear suspension on the unit, back under trailer, stop before the pin and lift the trailer up with the unit. Then reverse back and lock on to the pin ? If the trailer was dropped unloaded and you are picking it up loaded, you could damage the legs when locking the pin and when doing your checking the pin is locked. The legs might not be off the ground when the unit is at normal ride height. And it might be impossible to raise them. And is open coupling approved by DVSA ? Some fridge units especially have very little space between the unit and the cab to connect susies and air lines.

The way you described is how I was shown how to do and how the guys at work do it too.

Should you not check the unit brake before releasing trailer brake

How about checking that there is no gap between the fifth wheel and the trailer rubbing plate when coupling? I was always taught to, and still do.

@stevesutton9444

This is absolutely correct, BUT, there are so many things that you really couldn't include them all. I drive multi combinations in Australia and always use the airbags when coupling and uncoupling. I believe the DAF in the video has this function.

when you put in your driver card?

I see he didn’t remove the number plate. During the test, when are you supposed to put the number plate back on? When you have recoupled or when you reverse to see the height?

Hi Simon, thank you for your feedback and for taking the time to comment. It is difficult to see if the instructor checked his mirrors before manoeuvring but i assure you that this is taught while on lessons. The method we teach helps our candidates to remember this important routine. There are several correct routines to connect the unit to the trailer and we have successfully achieved all our test passes using this technique. We hope this helps to answer the points you raised.

That wouldn't be too bad if the marker tabs weren't on - although there's always the chance someone could have moved a marker - now there's a good practical joke for 1st April.

I still use black after dropping or picking up a trailer. Everyone should then dropping trailers on their nose would happen far less. What’s this guy doing pulling the electrics cables by the cable though? Not a very good standard to set. Also he doesn’t use the air to lower and lift the cab. Tut tut

@TotalOpel

I was thought to use BLANK - the N being Number Plate which was ignored in this video. As for raising or lowering the cab - why would you even want to do that if you could? The only part of the tractor unit that you need to adjust the height of is the rear suspension.

Fail the electric socket(primary) the flap does not fit properly ie the spring has gone on it, you don’t need a dog clip for that 5th wheel as it has drop down safety (info only that one ) but I’d fail that fella big time on checking them tyres what a Womble let’s just say there was a cord exposed on the tread of the tyre rubbing your hand around like he did instance cut to the hand fella just use your eyes dude

And then pull out on the road and get nicked because the test obviously doesn't require you to put your numberplate on the fuckin trailer

As far as I'm concerned, that was a FAIL. And I'm not even a trucker ! So let's see how many items we can list that weren't done that should have been done. To start the ball rolling Key: > Major PRIOR TO PARKING THE TRAILER >Was the chosen location suitable ? Not obstructing access to anything ? >Was the ground safe ? Steep slope, loose surface, too soft - including where legs would stand ? (Legs may need spreader plates on soft ground - like tarmac). >Did the landowner give permission for it to be parked there ? Before backing up to trailer, ensure cables & pipes are not hanging below the front of the trailer. Check brake lights - don't ask examiner to check them, ask the examiner to operate brakes so YOU can check the lights. Is the shunt valve control in the correct setting/position ? >Check tyre pressures - never mind the effing mudguards ! And WTF was he checking the tailgate cables ? >Clearly, from the vid, no need to check the reg plate matches that of the tractor. Oh but it is important ! SETTING OFF/JOURNEY PREPARATION > Check brake functions: all brakes TOTALLY off when moving; Service brake works fully on all wheels. You need to see the skid marks ! Ditto on fully loaded. You don't want to be caught out doing 100 mph down the m-way with 60 tons* behind you and then find the trailer brakes do F.A. * Proper tons are heavier than cheap metric tonnes - which are heavier than US tons.... ! I'm sure I've forgotten a few things.
