DefectIn the coupling device for large tractors, due to the inappropriate shape of the lock guard designed to prevent incorrect coupling, if coupling operations are performed when the tractor and trailer heights are not aligned, the lock guard may not operate correctly, resulting in an incorrect coupling state. Additionally, the coupler lock lamp, indicating coupling completion, may illuminate on the vehicle's meter. As a result, if use continues without visually confirming the coupling state, there is a risk that the tractor and trailer may separate while driving.
