just wondering whats everyones routine for coupling and un-coupling?
K.C.A.L.B and B.L.A.C.K basically, or some use B.L.A.N.K
B (trailer brake)
L (Legs)
A (Airlines)
C (Clip)
K (Kingpin)
and N is (numberplate)
helpful thread here if you care to take a look, helped me out.
There’s is only one routine for hooking up and just reverse it when dropping one. B.L.A.C.K. And don’t let yourself get distracted cos that phone call to the boss ain’t nice.

Quoted 44 Tonne ton,
"For split coupling again match the height of the fifth wheel to the trailer and drive under the trailer but don’t go all the way back. Stop and APPLY THE UNIT BRAKE!!! IS THE TRAILER BRAKE ON■■?
YES TO BOTH AND YOU CAN CONNECT THE SUZIES!
Now reverse back until you lock on the pin. As you’ve done your suzies you should do your dog clip and then the legs."
