Operating the service brake
The electric brake converts the acceleration
energy of the truck into electrical energy. This
causes the truck to decelerate.
Electrical braking recovers energy for the
battery. This results in a longer operating time
between charging operations and less wear to
the brakes.
The truck can also be braked with the mechan-
ical brake by actuating the brake pedal (2). In
the first section of the brake pedal's travel, only
the electric brake takes effect. As the pedal is
depressed further, the mechanical brake is
also activated and acts on the drive wheels
DANGER
If the service brake fails, the truck cannot brake
sufficiently. There is a risk of accident!
If the driver notices that the electrical braking effect
has reduced by 50% and that the drive torque has
decreased to 50% of the normal level, a component
failure may have occurred.
– Bring the truck to a standstill using the brakes.
Use the parking brake if necessary to assist in
this process.
– Notify the authorised service centre.
– Do not operate the truck again until the service
brake has been repaired.
DANGER
At speeds that are too high, there is a danger that
the truck could slip or overturn!
The braking distance of the truck depends on the
weather conditions and the level of contamination
on the roadway. Note that the basic braking di-
stance increases with the square of the speed.
– Adapt your driving and braking style to suit the
weather conditions and the level of contamina-
tion on the roadway.
– Always choose a driving speed that will provide
a sufficient stopping distance.
– Brake the truck by releasing the accelerator
pedal (1).
– If the braking effect is inadequate, use
the brake pedal (2) as well to apply the
mechanical brake.
