Structure and Function
5.4.3
Emergency brake
In the event that the implement disconnects from
the tractor during travel, the emergency brake
will stop the implement.
(1) Pull / release cord
(2) Brake valve with pressure accumulator
(3) Hand pump to relieve the brake
(A) Brake released
(B) Brake applied
DANGER
Before travel, set the brake to the application position.
For this purpose:
1. Secure the pull / release cord to a fixed point on the tractor.
2. Apply the tractor brake with the tractor engine running and hy-
draulic brake connected.
→
Pressure accumulator of the emergency brake is being charged.
DANGER
Risk of accident through brake malfunction!
After removing the cotter pin (e.g. when activating the emergency
brakes), it is essential to insert the cotter pin into the brake valve from
the same side, otherwise the brakes will not function.
After reinserting the cotter pin, carry out a brake test for the service
brake and the emergency brake.
When the implement is disconnected, the pressure accumulator
presses hydraulic oil:
•
into the brake and decelerates the implement, or
•
into the hose line to the tractor and impedes the connecting of
the brake line to the tractor.
In these cases, relieve pressure using the hand pump on the brake
valve.
