Handling the supporting mechanism
Coupling the TDK
Couple the TDK to the tractor
(the coupling height can be adjusted via the supporting mechanism).
The load on the supporting mechanism can be reduced by operating the actuation
device.
Fully retract the supporting mechanism and then secure it if possible.
Uncoupling the TDK
The supporting mechanism can be extended by operating the actuation device.
Uncouple the TDK (the coupling height can be adjusted via the supporting
mechanism).
Disconnect the hydraulic and electrical lines as well as the brake system and uncouple
the vehicle.
The tractor is a weight-bearing element for tandem trailers.
Therefore, the trailer must only be set down on the supporting foot when it is empty.
