(5) guide roller, (6) brake pulley block, (7) arm, (8) spring.

3.2.8 LIGHTING SYSTEM

The trailer's electrical system is designed for 12 V DC supply. Light-emitting diodes (LED) are

used as the source of light in all trailer's lights. The rear lights are additionally equipped with

the shields protecting against impact.

Connection of the trailer's electrical system with the tractor should be made using an

appropriate connection lead delivered together with newly purchased trailer.
