Plate Mounting
(See Figures 1C and 1F):
Holland Plate Mount fifth wheels are a reduced weight outboard mount application
intended for installation directly on mounting angles.
In addition to the information given in “Installation: General Recommendations” on
page 3, the following sequence should be followed when installing your plate mount
fifth wheel:
1. Bolt the outboard mounting angle to the tractor frame following the
recommendations in FIGURE 1C. The top of the mounting angle must be flush with
the top of the tractor frame. The mounting angle should be 1˝ longer than the
mounting plate. The minimum angle size requirements are as follows: 3˝ horizontal
leg, 3-1/2˝ vertical leg, & 36 inches long. For angle thickness and material
requirements see “Installation: General Recommendations” on page 3.
2. Reference FIGURE 1B for proper mounting hole location requirements.
3. Securely position the fifth wheel on the outboard mounting angles.
4. Bolt the fifth wheel to the outboard angle as shown in FIGURE 1F.
