When unloading a trailer that is not attached to a tractor with a forklift what should you do?
If it's a trailer with sliding tandems, ensure that the tandems are slid all the way to the rear.

How do you connect the Volvo tractor to a trailer and give also the name of every parts also demonstrate how to connect the tractor to trailer?
It's the same as with any other make of truck. Typically, a driver will push the switch to dump air out of the truck's suspension. If the kingpin lock isn't already pulled, they'll get out of the truck and pull it out before backing under the trailer. Once this is done, they'll back under the trailer, keeping the truck centered with the trailer. They should be able to hear the kingpin lock when it closes around the trailer kingpin. Once they believe they're under and connected to the trailer, they'll put the truck into first gear and pull forward to ensure that the trailer is properly connected. Once this is done, they'll get out of the truck again. They will connect their air lines (red to red, blue to blue) as well as the pigtail for their lights. Then they'll raise the trailer's landing gear. At that point, they're hooked up. From there, you'd check to ensure the trailer lights, brakes, etc. work, but that's after hooking up to the trailer.
