Sorry for bringing this up on this forum but I didn't know where else to ask this question. I have a Robin Industries 5th wheel hitch for towing my 2005 Yellowstone 34FBR and on occasions the hitch handle willl not release. The instructions indicate there are swivel or non-swivel locking mechanisms on the front of the hitch. Could someone explain what the purpose of the swivel vs non-swivel and if that has any effect on the hitch handle release. Thank you for the help...don
