•
Connect the pressure oil line to one of the pressure ports of the brake (see illustration 9 and 10). For that pur-
pose remove the screw plug beforehand.
!
The hydraulic lines have to be flushed before connecting to the brake to prevent any partic-
les from penetrating the brake. If the lines are not flushed sufficiently, the gaskets may be
damaged and the operation of the brake is no longer ensured.
•
Mount a miniature measuring coupling with a miniature measuring hose to the venting hole (see illustration 9
and 10), for that purpose the screw plug needs to be removed beforehand. Discharge the end of the miniature
measuring hose in a suitable collection container.
The pressure connections on top serve for venting the brake. For a flushing system make
use of one of the pressure connections on top.
Always connect the brake consisting of two halves to a pressure line (see illustration 10),
since the brake disk is loaded with the full braking power on one side in case if one half of
the brake fails.
!
It is not recommended to use steel plugs for venting.
•
Connect the leakage oil line to the brake (see illustration 9 and 10). For that purpose remove the sealing plugs
beforehand.
If no leakage oil line is connected, a vacuum may be generated inside the brake which will
damage the gaskets.
!
Never give any pressure on the leakage oil line. Gaskets and scrapers will be destroyed in
this way.
In order to locate a leakage immediately, it is recommended to use a transparent hose and
collection container. Since higher pressures (5 bars at the maximum) are not generated, a
pneumatic hose may be used, too. Inspect the brake for leakages regularly.
!
Severe leakages have to be removed immediately. Oil which has escaped has to be comple-
tely removed, since oil remains may vaporize on hot components and ignite.

Please make sure that the connections and hoses are adapted to the brakes with regard to
pressure, flow rate, temperature and liquid.
Moreover, you have to use flexible hydraulic hoses in order to not limit the motions of the
brake. Any hoses which are located close to mobile components should be secured or
coated accordingly.
