How do you adjustment on the fifth wheel on a volvo truck?

You have to have a trailer attached to do this. Lower the landing gear to the ground to take pressure off the fifth wheel. DO NOT RELEASE THE TRAILER KING PIN. Go into the cab. To the right of the instrument panel, you'll see the switch for the fifth wheel slide. Unlock the fifth wheel. Pull backwards or forwards (whichever direction you're moving the fifth wheel). When you get it to where you want it, lock the fifth wheel. Pull forward or backwards slightly to ensure the fifth wheel is locked in place.


How do you magnify in Windows 7?

If you have a wheel-mouse, the easy way is to hold down the CTRL key, and slide the wheel away from you - this increases the size of everything on the screen. Sliding the wheel towards you has the reverse effect.


Short of reload what can be done if the trailer is overweight in the tail?

If you can slide your tandems back without going past the 41' bridge limit (or 40' limit for loads in or going to California), and you have room to add weight to your drive tires, sliding your tandems back will transfer weight from your trailer axles to your drive axles. You can also side your fifth wheel back (if so equipped with a sliding fifth wheel) to transfer weight from your steer axle to your drive axle, or forward to transfer weight from your drive axles to your steer axle.

What is the math formula for transferring weights on axles of a semi and trailer?

Math formula? If you have a sliding fifth wheel and sliding tandems, then you move them as needed to get yourself legal... moving trailer tandems forwards takes weight off of the drive axles and transfers it to the trailer axles... moving trailer tandems back takes weight off the trailer axles and transfers it to the drive axles. Sliding a fifth wheel to the rear takes weight off your steer axle and transfers it to the drive axles... sliding a fifth wheel to the front takes weight off of your drive axles and transfers it to the steer axle. If you can't manipulate your weight this way, and be within bridge formula, then you either have it reloaded/have something taken off of the load, or you dodge the scalehouses and hope that you don't run into portable scales.

How is a trailer attached to a tractor?

Depends on what type of tractor and trailer you had in mind. For a farm tractor pulling a trailer, it's usually a pintle on the tractor which is run through a clevice on the trailer. For road going vehicles, the fifth wheel trailers are often used, where a trailer kingpin will be inserted and locked into a fifth wheel on the vehicle. In the case of an 18 wheeler, air lines will connect from the tractor to the trailer to operate the trailer's air brake system.


How do you adjust the weight between each tractor trailer axle?

If you have a sliding fifth wheel, you can transfer weight from the drive axles to the steer axle by sliding it forward, or you can transfer weight from the steer axle to the drive axles by sliding it back. If you have sliding tandems on your trailer, you can transfer weight from the drive axles to the trailer axles by sliding the trailer axles forward, or you can transfer weight from the trailer axles to the drive axles by sliding the tandem axles back. If you don't have these options, you have to readjust your load.


What is rolling friction and sliding friction?

I assume this relates to a wheel. When the wheel is rolling, the surface of the wheel is not moving relative to the surface of the road when they are in contact. however, the wheel deforms slightly and because of this, the normal force slightly opposing the motion of the wheel rather than simply pushing it up. This is rolling friction or more commonly known as static friction. When the wheel is sliding, the wheel is sliding over the road's surface, meaning that there is relative movement between the wheel and the road. this is known as sliding friction or kinetic friction.

There should be a lock ring on the axle that prevents the wheel from sliding off while in service. Remove the lock ring and slide the wheel off the axle. You may need a lock rings pliers to remove it, or you might be able to do it with a small screw driver.
