Service brake
The service brake consists of oil-cooled discs that are alternately
fixed to and rotating with the hub. Hydrualic pressure is applied
to activate a piston in each hub, the discs are then pressed to-
gether, and the wheels are braked. The resulting heat caused by
friction is led away by the cooling oil circulating in the system. Oil
from the truck’s hydraulic system is used as cooling oil, and this
gives a high cooling capacity.
