Structure and Functions
Brake force regulator
The brake force regulator can be used to manually adapt the braking
effect (braking force) of the two-line service brake system to the
current loading condition of the machine. Possible braking effects are:
• Full load = Machine full filled
• Half load = Machine partly filled
• Empty = Machine empty
• Release = Release service brake system
The "Release" position allows to manoeuvre the machine with the
brake hoses not coupled to the manoeuvring vehicle.

Example:
Machine partly filled = turn hand lever (7) so that
the symbol "Half-load" is below the reading point
(8).
Absolutely adapt the braking effect of the two-line service brake
system via the brake force regulator to the current loading condition
of the machine before carrying out transport drives.
Only with matched braking effect:
• will the pressure released by the trailer brake valve be limited,
• will there be no overrun pushes,
• can you brake the tractor / machine combination sensitively and
stepped,
• does the tractor / machine combination stay stretched through
rapid advance braking.
