System Repair Checklist

� Replacing the TRACC® Rip Plates is a two person job.

� Remove the Plastic Nose by removing the four bolts.

� Remove the first set of Fender Panels (4) (upper and lower) closest to the front of the collapsed system by removing bolts (4 bolts at upper Panel & 3 bolts at lower Panel on each side).

� Remove both pins holding Shredder Bolts in place in the Sled Assembly.

� Loosen and remove one rear bolt at each of the diagonally crossed flat bars located on the Sled Assembly.

� Swing each flat bar parallel to the side of the Sled Assembly, and the front bolts can be loosened slightly to allow the two bars to rotate outward.

� Slide the Sled Assembly all the way forward.

� Loosen and remove Doubler Plate bolts from the TRACC (3 bolts at each Doubler Plate).

� Remove all Doubler Plates at damaged Rip Plate locations.

� Remove exposed and damaged Rip Plates.

� Remove Shredder Bolts that may be wedged within damaged Rip Plates as the Shredder Bolts may need to be tapped loose with a hammer.

� Ensure correct replacement and sequence of Rip Plates by checking all part numbers and referring to appropriate Trinity drawings (p. 33 – 35).

� Insert new Rip Plates starting from the back.

� Re-attach the Doubler Plates on top of the Rip Plates.

� Tighten the whole assembly down with bolts (3 bolts at each Doubler Plate).

� Attach Rip Plate Shredder Bolts and crossed flat bars to the front assembly sled.

� Slide all Frames forward to equidistant positions behind the Sled Assembly.

� Ensure Fender Panels are not wedged or caught on any portion of the system when sliding Frames forward with or without Fender Panels attached.

� Once Frames are in place, re-attach remaining Fender Panels.

� Reattach / replace the Plastic Nose.

� Verify all bolts are in place and tight.
