[QUOTE="MaceFremonti, post: 1493831, member: 36696"] Feeder Tip #334 When pretripping a set that is already assembled visually make sure the 5th wheel jaw is completely closed! I encountered two sets from the midwest this week where the fifth wheel release handle was in the down/locked position but the locking jaw/bar was not completely across the back of the kingpin. The right side of the jaw was open about 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch. In both instances I was the 3rd driver to move the set and both instances I red tagged the dolly and swapped it out. [/QUOTE]
