They Just told me to bring a TRAILER!

What happens here

The person backs the Dodge truck towards the Kaufman tilt-deck utility trailer. The trailer's lunette ring is carefully aligned and connected to the pintle hook hitch. Safety chains are then attached from the trailer to the truck's frame, and the electrical umbilical cord is plugged in to provide power for the trailer's lights and hydraulic tilt mechanism.

Goal: This step details connecting the Kaufman tilt-deck utility trailer to the truck's pintle hook hitch, attaching safety chains, and connecting the electrical wiring.
