rtia Brake
Installation
1.
Clean and thoroughly dry all mating surfaces (including the gasket) prior to assembly.
Note:
The transmission inertia brake may be mounted to the 6-bolt PTO opening directly, or mounted utilizing a 6-bolt PTO Angle
Adapter to assist in aiding chassis clearance.
2.
If a 6-bolt PTO Angle Adapter is required, install the angle adapter to the 6-bolt PTO opening following the
manufacturers instructions. See picture of 6-bolt installation with angle adapter in the “Final Check” section.
3.
If the Inertia brake is installed directly mounted to the 6-bolt opening, proper orientation must be followed as shown in
the illustration in the “Final Check” section. A directly mounted Inertia Brake also requires a new lubrication hose, Eaton
part number 5588209.
4.
Using the six (6) 3/8 mounting bolts, install the Inertia Brake and gasket, being careful to align the Inertia Brake gear
with the drive gear. Tighten mounting bolts to 40-45 lb-ft. (54-61 Nm) using a cross pattern.
Note:
When mounted directly - orient the inertia brake housing with hose connection forward / electrical connection rearward as
shown in the “Final Check” section (same orientation as 8-bolt). When mounted to a 6-bolt PTO Angle Adapter - orient the
inertia brake housing with hose connection rearward / electrical connection forward as shown in the illustration in the
“Final Check” section. Ensure gasket, inertia brake and mating mounting faces are assembled dry (no lubricant or grease).
CAUTION
The Inertia Brake is heavy. Be prepared to handle the weight of the Inertia Brake until the mounting bolts are installed.
5.
Reconnect the lubricant supply line to the Inertia Brake and tighten to 20-22 lb-ft (27-30 Nm). For Inertia Brakes directly
mounted to the 6-bolt opening: Orient the 45 degree elbow facing inboard, and connect the 45 degree elbow
fitting end of the 5588209 hose to the Inertia Brake elbow. Connect the straight fitting end of the hose to the case port
90 degree elbow. For Inertia Brakes mounted to a 6-bolt PTO angle Adapter: Connect the 90 degree elbow fitting end of
the 5588210 hose to the case port 90 degree elbow. Connect the straight fitting end of the hose to the Inertia Brake 45
degree elbow.
