- Ensure the small T-Pin/T-Bushing is at the front mounting holes and the large T-Pin/T-Bushing is at the rear.

Step 2: Install Legs into the Truck Bed
- Lower the assembled center section and legs into the truck’s underbed pucks.
- Rotate the T-Pin handles to the OPEN position.
- Ensure the legs seat fully into the pucks.
- Rotate the handles to the CLOSED position and secure them with lynch pins.
- Verify that the handles are snug and not rattling. Adjust the castle nuts by hand if necessary.
Step 3: Install the M5 Head to the Center Section
- Apply grease to the following locations:
- Skid plate surface (use grease or REESE lube plate #83001, max thickness 3/16”).
- 5th wheel jaw and kingpin on the trailer.
- Grease fitting on the top of the head using a grease needle.
- Internal mechanisms with white lithium grease.
- Place the M5 Head (30892) on top of the center section.

Step 5: Hitching the Trailer
- Confirm the head is in the Ready-to-Receive position:
- Handle pulled out fully with an audible “CLICK.”
- Indicator shows RED.

- Block trailer wheels and keep landing gear down.
- Slowly pull forward to confirm the hitch is securely latched.
- Insert the bail pin into the locking hole to secure the handle.

- Block the trailer wheels and lower the landing gear.

- Pull the handle to the Unhitching position (audible “CLICK”) and rotate it toward the cab.
