Question For The Refer Haulers
Topic 17609 | Page 2
Thanks G! Yeah, I pretty much have it figured out now. As for the refer unit itself, I guess I'll just have to start pressing buttons and see what happens. LOL
I'm thinking an old style garden claw might work. The extended tandem release would probably work too but is a bit too long maybe.

I have a pair of long handled pliers that have worked too. You had an older unit, ropes r usually in good shape on the newer ones.

Tandem:
Tandem Axles
A set of axles spaced close together, legally defined as more than 40 and less than 96 inches apart by the USDOT. Drivers tend to refer to the tandem axles on their trailer as just "tandems". You might hear a driver say, "I'm 400 pounds overweight on my tandems", referring to his trailer tandems, not his tractor tandems. Tractor tandems are generally just referred to as "drives" which is short for "drive axles".
