11 Decommissioning
11.1 Temporary decommission-
ing
NOTE
Material damage caused by long down-
times!
If the decommissioning lasts for several
months, the tyres can be damaged by
storage deterioration.
► Move the trailer once a month to pre-
vent the tyres from deteriorating dur-
ing storage.
The following measures need to be taken
to temporarily decommission the trailer:
► Clean the trailer.
► Drive the trailer onto firm and level
ground.
► If necessary, protect the trailer from
excess water and snow loads.
► Apply the parking brake (see "5.9.2
Parking brake", pg.37).
► Secure the trailer against rolling away
(see "5.1 Using wheel chocks", pg.22).
► Drain the brake system (see "5.8 Drain-
ing the compressed air tanks", pg.35).
► Before the start of the frosty period, fill
up the brake lines with antifreeze (see
"5.8 Draining the compressed air tanks",
pg.35).
► Close off the coupling heads for the
supply and control connections separ-
ately with protective caps.
► Observe the instructions for decom-
missioning the installed supplied com-
ponents.
ü The trailer is temporarily decommis-
sioned.
11.2 Recommissioning
WARNING
Risk of accident and material damage
due to lack of checks!
After longer downtimes, the wear condi-
tion of the KRONE trailer's axle can
change. Operating the axle when not in
perfect technical condition can lead to ser-
ious accidents or material damage.
► Perform a component check before
driving for the first time.
► Fix any detected faults before driving
off.
► Serious faults must be repaired by an
authorised specialist workshop.
To recommission the trailer after temporary
decommissioning, the following measures
must be taken:
► Perform a general visual inspection.
► Check the entire lighting system.
► Check the tyre inflation pressure, age
and condition of the tyres.
► Check the function of the brake sys-
tem.
► Check the function of the air suspen-
sion.
► Grease the lubrication points.
► Carry out a departure check (see "7.1
Commissioning before each trip", pg.88).
► Check the coupling heads for the sup-
ply and control connections for cleanli-
ness and functioning seals.
► Observe the other applicable operating
instructions for recommissioning the
installed supplied components.
ü The trailer has been put back into op-
eration again.
