the parking brake (2) to prevent it from rolling
away in case of a pressure loss in the service
brake.
¾

Releasing the brake
¾
Press the parking brake button to release the
parking brake.
NOTE
¾
Before parking the machine pull the parking
brake button down again to apply the parking
brake.
Maintenance
¾
Drain the air reservoir every day during op-
eration:
¾
Clean the filter as required, but at least once
a year.
¾
Check the brake lining for wear every year
and renew as required.
For functional safety of the valves, anti-freeze
agent should be mixed to the compressed air
(follow the operating instructions of the tractor
manufacturer).
This agent maintains the elasticity of the seals
and reduces rust deposits in lines and reservoirs.
As a preventive measure against damage
caused by moisture, the pneumatic brake hose
couplings can be covered with plastic lids or a
plastic bag.
Mechanical release fixture
If necessary, the spring brake cylinders can also
be released mechanically.
NOTE
The machine must be hitched up beforehand or
secured against rolling by other means.
Driving without brake on public roads is pro-
hibited.
¾
For this purpose back out the screw until the
brake is released:
