The definitions below describe some of the major components of a typical trailer that would be used with the DCA-150SSJU3 WhisperwattGenerator.

1.Fuel Cell - Provides an adequate amount of fuel for the equipment in use. Fuel cells must be empty when trans- porting equipment.

2.Braking System - System employed in stopping the trailer. Typical braking systems are electric, surge, hy- draulic, hydraulic-surge and air.

3.GVWR- Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) is the maximum number of pounds the trailer can carry, in- cluding the fuel cell (empty).

4.Frame Length - Measurement is from the ball hitch to the rear bumper (reflector).

5.Frame Width - Measurement is from fender to fender

6.Jack Stand - Trailer support device with maximum pound requirement from the tongue of the trailer.

7.Coupler - Type of hitch used on the trailer for towing.

8.Tire Size - Indicates the diameter of the tire in inches (10,12,14, etc.), and the width in millimeters (175,185,205, etc.). The tire diameter must match the diameter of the tire rim.

9.Tire Ply - The tire ply (layers) number is rated in letters; 2-ply,4-ply,6-ply, etc.

10.Wheel Hub - The wheel hub is connected to the trailer’s axle.

11.Tire Rim - Tires mounted on a tire rim. The tire rim must match the size of the tire.

12.Lug Nuts - Used to secure the wheel to the wheel hub. Always use a torque wrench to tighten down the lug nuts. See Table 16 and Figure 58 for lug nut tightening and sequence.

13.Axle - Indicates the maximum weight the axle can sup- port in pounds, and the diameter of the axle expressed in inches. Please note that some trailers have a double axle. This will be shown as 2-6000 lbs., meaning two axles with a total weight capacity of 6000 pounds.

14.Suspension - Protects the trailer chassis from shocks transmitted through the wheels. Types of suspension used are leaf, Q-flex, and air ride.

15.Electrical - Electrical connectors (looms) are provided with the trailer so the brake lights and turn signals can be connected to the towing vehicle.
