In the case of the CT166, 167 and TB trailers fitted with sideboards (an option), ensure the
rear sideboards are closed
–
otherwise they will dig in the ground when the load-bed is tilted
and suffer significant damage.
•
Release the clamps holding the front of the trailer to the drawbar:
o
In the case of the TB a single over-centre latch sitting on top of the ram. It is necessary to
pull the “trigger” behind the handle before the handle will open. Swing the latch loop away
from the hook so that there is no chance of the latch loop re-engaging the latch loop as the
trailer bed lifts.
o
In the case of the CT177, two over-centre clamps.
o
In the case of the CT166 & 167, two screw clamps
