The SAF Holland RL-230 or RL-250 suspensions use a bolt at the suspension pivot
connection with an eccentric collar to allow for adjustment for axle alignment.
1. Loosen the 1 1/8” pivot bolt lock nut on the inside of the suspension hanger.
2. Rotate bolt head clockwise to move the axle forward (to shorten the alignment measure-
ment) or rotate bolt head counter clockwise to move the axle rearward (to lengthen the
alignment measurement).
3. Snug the hanger bolts to 200 ft. lbs. and check the alignment measurements. Loosen the
nut and repeat the adjustments in Step #2 if necessary
4. When the axle is correctly aligned, re-torque the lock nut on the pivot bolt to 550 ft. lbs.
The SAF Holland CB2300 & CBX23 suspension with the Quik Align feature uses a bolt on
the front the suspension hanger to allow for adjustment for axle alignment.
1. Using a hand wrench, rotate the Quick Align bolt clockwise to shorten the alignment mea-
surement or counter clockwise to lengthen the alignment measurement.
AIR-RIDE SUSPENSION SYSTEMS
See suspension manufacturer’s decals prominently displayed on trailer body and manufacturer
literature kit supplied with trailer for details and specific instructions on the care and maintenance
of the air ride suspension.
Retorque the suspension fasteners after the first 3 months of use or 5,000 miles of operation after
an alignment, at regular periodic maintenance checks and at every brake relining per the
manufacturer’s directions.
NOTE: Never move an air ride trailer without first fully inflating the air springs – failure to
do so could cause damage to the trailer and suspension and will void the warranty.
