11. Slide the splitting wedge on the beam all the way to the
end of the beam against the splitting foot. Stand the beam
vertically on its splitting foot so the splitting wedge is point-
ing downward. Back the trailer assembly into the beam so
that the pivot pin holes on the beam and trailer assembly
are aligned with one another. SEE FIGURE 7. The spring
loaded lock pin that is on the tongue, underneath the pivot
pin hole, will need to be pulled back to allow the pivot pin
holes to line up. SEE FIGURE 8. Insert the large clevis pin
through the aligned pivot pin holes on both the tongue and
beam, and secure in place with the corresponding hair pin.
SEE FIGURE 8.
12. With the beam still in the vertical position, place the cylin-
der/valve assembly onto the beam’s cylinder mount plate
and attach using the four nuts, four lock washers, and four
flat washers that are found in parts bag labeled #2. SEE FIG-
URE 9. Tighten with a 25mm deep-pocket socket wrench, (a
socket extension will be needed to reach the nuts).
note: Before mounting the cylinder/valve assembly to the
beam, make sure the trailer and beam assemblies are on
a flat and level surface, and the beam is securely locked to
the trailer assembly via the pivot pin and vertical lock pin.
