10.7.8 Brake servicing
The wheel loader is equipped with a foot and parking brake. The foot and parking brake consists of a drum brake
with a cable pull. The foot brake is actuated by a foot pedal (W11) and a handbrake lever (W12 and W13).
• Check the brakes daily before starting any journey.
• Check the brake fluid level! (W12 and W13) This must always be filled to max.
• Check the entire system for liquid leaks.
• Check the functionality of the parking brake daily!
Accident hazard due to defective brakes!
Defective brakes can cause fatal accidents! Do not drive with defective brakes! Only work with the wheel loader
after rectifying faults! Work on the brake system may only be carried out by trained specialist personnel. Have the
brake system inspected regularly by trained and experienced personnel during inspections. When parking the wheel
loader, secure the wheel loader additionally with brake blocks or brake wedges!
10.7.9 Servicing tires and wheels
Danger to life/injury hazard!
Improperly fitted tires and wheels may lead to fatal accidents. Work on wheels and tires may only be carried out by
personnel trained for such work. Welding or torch cutting on the rims is prohibited! Renew damaged rims!
Differing wheel or tire sizes can cause damage to the wheel loader's differential gears.
Only fit wheels or tires from the same manufacturer, of the same size and the same state of wear on the wheel
loader!
Inflating tires
These instructions refer to inflation in case of air pressure loss. Observe the air pressure prescribed for the wheel
loader's tire size (see "Tire air pressure table"). In the event of complete loss of air pressure, this work may only be
carried out by trained specialist personnel with the appropriate equipment.
Use only filling units with a calibrated pressure gage to inflate the tires!
Ensure that no persons are located in the danger zone while inflating tires.
