Inspection, Service and Maintenance
Bri-Mar

When replacing a ball, the load rating must match or exceed the GVWR
of the trailer.
8.2.5.4 Fifth Wheel Kingpin
Before each tow, inspect the fifth wheel and kingpin for wear, and coat
the contact surface of the fifth wheel plate with water-resistant Lithium-
base grease. If you see evidence of wear on the fifth wheel or kingpin,
immediately have your dealer inspect them to determine the proper
action to prevent failure of the fifth wheel and kingpin system.
See the manual prepared by the manufacturer of the fifth wheel and
kingpin for other inspection and maintenance activities. If you do not
have this manual, call Bri-Mar Manufacturing LLC at 1-717-263-6116
for more information.
8.2.6 Landing Leg or Jack
If a grease fitting is present, you must use a grease gun to lubricate the
jack mechanism. Grease the gears in the top of hand-cranked jacks once
a year, by removing the top of the jack and pumping or hand packing
grease into the gears.
8.2.7 Lights and Signals
Before each tow, check the trailer taillights, stoplights, turn signals and
any clearance lights for proper operation.
To avoid collisions, taillights, stoplights and turn signals must work.
8.2.8 Accessory Battery
Your trailer is equipped with an accessory battery that operates the DC
Power Unit and the electric breakaway brakes. An accessory battery
may be kept charged either by the tow vehicle or by the optional battery
charger. See the manual for the accessory battery.
