11.5.11 Checking the tyres for correct pressure
It is important that the tyres have suffi cient pressure for the safety of the operator whilst driving
and also for the safety of third parties during transport. Too little pressure in the tyres will lead to
an unstable driving behaviour and there will be an increased risk of tilting. The parking brake has,
moreover, been pressed against the rear tyres. The clamping force of the parking brake will be
inadequate when the tyre pressure is lower than normal, which may be a source of hazards.
Correct tyre tension is:
Small front tyres: 2.5 kg/cm
2
(Max. 40 psi)
Large rear tyres: 3 kg/cm
2
(Max. 50 psi)
11.5.12 Adjusting the parking brake
Always apply the parking brake when shredding to avoid that the machine should unintentionally
move. In addition, it should be noted that it is essential that the parking brake holds the machine
in its position for the stability of the load when transporting the machine in a van or a trailer.
A plate is pressed against the rear tyres when the brake pedal is applied at the front of the
machine. The pressure that is exerted on the tyres must be suffi cient to conquer the hydraulic
tensile force of we wheel motors should you activate it. If the tyre diameter should have been
reduced because the tyres are worn, adjust the brake accordingly. You can make adjustments to
the push rod on the brake pedal.
Loosen the lock nut (M12) at the threaded end of the push rod near the brake pedal. (A/F 19)
Loosen the pin from the fork to the brake pedal. Now turn the fork one or multiple turns out-
wards (anticlockwise). Position the pin
again in the fork and try the braking force.
If the braking force is still insuffi cient,
repeat the above procedure. If the braking
force is suffi cient, retighten the lock nut
(M12) (A/F 19) and also secure the pin by
pressing into place the clip on the fork.
