EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION AND DATA PARA. NO. TITLE 1-8...Equipment Characteristics, Capabilities, and Features 1-9...Location and Description of Major Components 1-10...Differences Between Models 1-11...Equipment Data 1-12...Safety, Care, and Handling 1-8. EQUIPMENT CHARACTERISTICS, CAPABILITIES, AND FEATURES a. This semitrailer is a flatbed trailer supported by five rows of axles; each row consists of two axle units (bogies) with inner and outer dual tires mounted to each bogie. b. The semitrailer prime movers are the U.S. Army M911 and M1070 tractors; however, the adjustable gooseneck enables the semitrailer to operate efficiently with the U.S. Marine Corps MK48/16, the HET M746, and the German FAUN SLT 50-2. 1-2

c. The tractor/semitrailer combination can operate going up or down a 15 percent grade and has a maximum towing speed of 45 mph (72.4 km/h) on primary roads, 40 mph (64.3 km/h) on secondary roads, and 15 mph (24.1 km/h) off road. d. Fully loaded, the tractor/semitrailer combination can operate on a 20 percent side slope with either side facing upslope without tires coming off the ground or overextending the suspension assemblies. 1-3

1-8. EQUIPMENT CHARACTERISTICS, CAPABILITIES, AND FEATURES (CONT) e. Fully loaded, the tractor/semitrailer can ford water to a maximum depth of 28 inches (71 cm), including wave height, without using additional water fording equipment. f. Towing vehicles (tractors) provide electrical power and air brake (pneumatic) pressure to the semitrailer through standard intervehicular connections for brake lights, turn signals, blackout lights, clearance lights, and service and emergency brakes. g. The semitrailer is automatically steered in response to turning of the tractor. When in tow, semitrailer can negotiate a 90-degree turn in one continuous motion, at an intersection from one 30-foot (9m) wide road to another 30-foot (9m) wide road. h. The auxiliary power unit (APU) provides power for the entire hydraulic system and is used for independent adjustments of the suspension, steering, and gooseneck. i. The bogies (suspension system, axles, brakes, and wheels) simultaneously move up and down and can be individually isolated, allowing access for tire changes or trailer movement with a disabled bogie. NOTE The terms used throughout this manual to describe areas and parts of the semitrailer, and their location relative to each other, are referenced as follows: When a person stands at the loading ramp end (rear) of the semitrailer looking toward the gooseneck on the forward (front) end of the semitrailer, the side on the left is designated as the streetside and the side on the right is the curbside. Locations of areas and items on or under the semitrailer platform will be identified as inboard (toward or nearest the center of the platform) or outboard (farthest from the center). For example, the hydraulic operating controls and gages are located on the curbside of the semitrailer under the front corner of the platform. The crowbar is mounted at the rear of the semitrailer under the loading ramps. 1-4

1-9. LOCATION AND DESCRIPTION OF MAJOR COMPONENTS GOOSENECK ASSEMBLY (1). The gooseneck assembly (1) is the forward most part of semitrailer and provides overall hookup to a tractor. INTERVEHICULAR CONNECTIONS (2 and 3). Two electrical connectors (2) and gladhand connectors (3) provide electrical and air brake connections between the tractor and semitrailer. GRAB HANDLE (4). A grab handle (4), located at the front streetside of the gooseneck, is used for access to back of tractor when making intervehicle connections and when working with tractor winch cables. KINGPIN AND STEERING WEDGE (5 and 6). The kingpin (5) and steering wedge (6), located under the front of the gooseneck assembly, provide automatic steering for the semitrailer when connected to the tractor. The kingpin is the center pivoting point for the trailer, and the steering wedge turns with the trailer and operates two master steering cylinders. STEERING CONSOLE (7). The steering console (7), located within the gooseneck assembly, consists of a steering arm, a pivoted steering console, and two master steering hydraulic cylinders. When the steering wedge turns, it operates the steering arm which rotates the steering console. Two master hydraulic cylinders are operated by the steering console and displace hydraulic fluid to two slave cylinders on the platform. Change 1 1-5
