TurnNBurn drill adapter for semi trailers
FAQS
Frequently asked questions
- 01A landing gear drill adapter is a tool that attaches to the crankshaft of trailer landing gear and allows a cordless drill to raise or lower the trailer legs instead of manual cranking. This tool significantly reduces physical strain on drivers and speeds up trailer hookup operations. The TurnNBurn® landing gear adapter is one of the most widely used drill-powered adapters designed specifically for trailers.
- 02The TurnNBurn Adapter is a tool that attaches to semi-trailer landing gear, allowing an 18V drill to easily raise and lower it, saving time and effort.
- 03While any drill with a minimum of 18 volts is compatible with the TurnNBurn adapter, it is strongly recommended to use a standard drill driver rather than an impact driver. Standard drill drivers provide a smoother and more controlled rotational force, which is ideal for the precise operation of raising and lowering semi trailer landing gear. Impact drivers, on the other hand, deliver rapid concussive rotational impacts designed primarily for driving fasteners, which can cause excessive stress and potential damage to the landing gear mechanism or the adapter itself. Using a standard drill driver helps ensure consistent torque application, reduces wear on components, and enhances operator safety during use.
- 04No modifications are needed—just attach it to the landing gear shaft, and you’re ready to go.
- 05Yes. TurnNBurn was recognized with 1st Place Health & Wellness Initiative by Southern California Edison for reducing repetitive strain associated with manual landing gear cranking. It helps reduce fatigue and improve consistency during drop & hook operations.
- 06TurnNBurn is compatible with most medium- and heavy-duty trailers equipped with manual landing gear and a standard 1-inch crank shaft, including trailers manufactured by: Great Dane Utility Trailer Manufacturing Hyundai Translead Stoughton Trailers Vanguard National Trailer MAC Trailer Fontaine Trailer Manac Reitnouer Wilson Trailer Dorsey Trailer Felling Trailers Wabash
