Coupling order

Macski:
I was shouted at today because I put on the airlines before winding up the legs, aparently I will kill someone doing that.

I have always started with the lines then made my way round the trailer finishing with the clip.

Whats so wrong with that?

Trailer brake should always be the first thing you put on and the last thing you take off, always check it even if it is one of the automatic ones that way you wont forget when you couple up one that’s not an auto trailer brake. The standard procedure that you should have been taught when learning is B.L.A.C.K. to uncouple and reverse this to couple. Many companies also use this and when you go into places you will see posters dotted about with this information on them.
