How to Use the Curt Pintle Hook and Hitch Ball

Published 01/05/2018

Question:

I have a heavy duty trailer and am looking at the Curt pintle hook / hitch ball but haven't used one before. My fingers are somewhat dainty and I don't want them to get pinched because I do need them hahahahahaha. This doesn't snap or anything does it?

You should not have any trouble using the Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball - 2" Hitches # C45910-15-20. If you take a look at the linked demonstration video you can see that the pintle hook will not snap, and to open the pintle you will only need to pull the safety pin and pull on the T-handle. It is perfectly safe for any sized hands and simple to use.
