5.4.3 CLEANING AND MAINTAINING PNEUMATIC LINE
CONNECTIONS AND PNEUMATIC SOCKETS
DANGER
Unreliable and dirty slurry tanker connections may cause unreliability and faulty
functioning of braking system.
Connection with damaged body should be replaced. In event of damage to cover or seal,
change these elements for new reliable elements. Contact of pneumatic connector seals with
oils, grease, petrol etc. may cause damage and accelerate ageing process.
If the slurry tanker is unhitched from the tractor, connections should be protected by cover or
placed in their designated socket. Before the winter period it is recommended to preserve the
seal with special preparations (e.g. silicon grease for rubber elements).
Each time before connection of the machine inspect technical condition and cleanness of
contacts and sockets in tractor. If necessary clean or repair tractor socket.
Checking technical condition of connections:
•
each time before hitching to tractor.
