12.5.8.1 Visual inspection of the dual-circuit pneumatic braking system
Before moving off, check the brake system to ensure that the
following criteria are met:
Piping, hose lines and hose couplings must not be externally
damaged or rusted.
Hinges, e.g. on fork heads, must be properly secured, easy to
move, and not worn out.
Ropes and cables
must be properly run.
must have no visible cracks.
may not be knotted.
Check the brake cylinder piston stroke.
Only 2/3 of the stroke of the brake cylinder may be utilised.
Otherwise, readjust the brake (specialist workshop).
Replace damaged dust covers.
Carry out an exterior inspection of the compressed air tank (see
section on "Exterior inspection of the compressed air tank", Seite
185).
If the visual inspection, function or action testing of the service brake
system shows any signs of deficiencies, have a thorough inspection
of all components performed immediately at a specialist workshop.
