3.6.13.2 Check of the emergency brake
This test veries the function of the emergency brake. Due to
possible wear of the parking brake, the emergency brake check
is to be performed with a stationary machine. During normal
operation, the emergency brake button is to be used in the
event of danger when the machine is running. After pressing
the emergency brake button, the traction force immediately
stops and the parking brake (P) engages.
Check that the area in front of and behind the machine is
empty and that there are no persons or obstacles there!
Ensure a suitable safe distance in front of the machine,
behind the machine as well as on its sides.

The machine is unbraked.
Press the emergency brake button (6). The engine stops and the
parking brake indicator lamp (29) lights up.
If the engine does not shut down, turn it o using the key in
the ignition box, secure the machine against spontaneous mo-
vement using wedges on a level and solid surface and contact
service.
Note:
The emergency stop button (6) is only to be used to stop the
machine in an emergency. Use the service brake to stop the ma-
chine normally. To turn o the engine normally, use the ignition
box (19) – turn the key to the “0” position.
