SERVICE BRAKES
The service brakes should be checked and adjusted
regularly in order to maintain braking performance and
meet current braking regulations.
As the brake linings wear it will become necessary to
adjust the brakes. This is performed by loosening the
locking nut on the adjustment screw at the rear of the
brake ram mounting. The adjustment screw should be
tightened to remove free-play travel in the brake
linkage. The locking nut should now be retightened to
set the position of the adjustment screw. This process
must be carried out on both brake actuators.
When maximum threaded adjustment has been
achieved it will become necessary to realign the
actuating levers on their mounting splines in order to
gain increased brake cam travel. At this point it is
advisable to remove the brake drums and visually
inspect the brake linings to assess condition and wear.
HANDBRAKE
With reference to Figure 4, the handbrake can be
adjusted by releasing the locking nut (item 1) and
increasing cable tension by means of the tension nut
(item 2). When maximum threaded travel is reached,
the clamps retaining the wire around the brake
actuating levers can be released and the cable
adjusted accordingly.

TRANSPORTATION
The triangular loops attached to the body behind the
wheels and the holes in the vertical drawbar mount
plate at the front of the body can be used as tie down
points when transporting the spreader on a lorry.
