Operating the quick-release
coupling
Humbaur GmbH vehicles can be
optionally equipped with the Duo-Matic
automatic quick-release coupling
system.
With this type, the supply and brake lines
are always connected or disconnected at
the same time, due to their design and
construction.
In the uncoupled condition, the coupling
heads are automatically closed.
