tires.

Brake Safety
Brakes are Important! Brakes are an option on this machine. If your machine is equipped with brakes, please
observe the following guidelines regarding operation, maintenance, and adjustment.
• Follow all connection procedures under “Hooking Up for the First Time” in Section 5 of this manual. For the brakes
to operate properly, they must be connected properly.
• Be sure all the brakes are adjusted properly, following the procedures outlined under “Air Brake Maintenance” in
Section 6 of this manual. If the brakes are not adjusted properly, they will not operate properly.
• Use caution whenever operating this machine. Even though brakes are available for use, this machine can still
be driven too quickly for the conditions. Always allow plenty of time to slow down for emergency situations.
• Test the brakes before operation.
• Applying the brakes to lockup will cause the stacker to slide and behave erratically. Avoid this situation.
