What is the correct way to connect the converter dolly to the front trailer?

The process of connecting the converter dolly to the front trailer involves ensuring that both safety and functionality are prioritized during the hook-up. The correct approach requires locking the pintle hook to secure the connection between the dolly and the trailer. This locking mechanism is crucial as it prevents any unintended disconnection while the vehicle is in motion.

Additionally, securing the gear in the raised position is necessary to maintain stability and control over the dolly and the trailers it connects. The raised position ensures that the dolly's adjustable components are effectively engaged, enabling the safe transfer of weight and reducing the risk of misalignment during operation.

This combination of locking the pintle hook and securing the gear results in a secure connection, which is fundamental for operating a vehicle with double or triple trailers safely, as it minimizes the risk of accidents caused by mechanical failure or disconnection.
