Dixie Industries Sixth Wheel Ratchet Demonstration Video

April 4, 2013

The Sixth Wheel Ratchet by Dixie Industries is the safe and ergonomic alternative to standard S-cranks used to lower tractor trailer landing gear.

Standard S-cranks require a full-circle motion.This puts the operator in unsafe postures while exerting extremely high forces. The Sixth Wheel utilizes a ratcheting mechanism that allows the operator exert more force while decreasing awkward and unsafe postures.
