4.6.10 Transportation options
4.6.10.1 Option rb/rm/rr, rb/rm/rs, rc/ro/rr, rg/rp/rr, rc/ro/rs, rd/ro/rr
Transportation options
Anti-twist protection, tow bar tube
Chassis with the
rg/rp/rr option are fitted with a rotatable mounted adapter for seating the towing
eye or ball coupling. If the trailer is towed over rugged ground, this adapter will offset opposing
forces caused by different lateral slope angles of towing vehicle and trailer.
This effectively prevents damages to the chassis geometry of the trailer.
Overrun brake
The chassis with Option
rs is equipped with an overrun brake. If the towing vehicle brakes during
the towing event, the trailer presses the overrun device together to a point where the trailer is ac‐
tively braked. The stopping distance is significantly less than for a trailer without overrun brake.
Function:
■ The overrun device activates the relay lever.
■ The relay lever pulls the brake actuating rod with the brake cable.
■ The brake joint lock is twisted and spreads the brake shoes in the drum brake.
■ The trailer brakes.
