The in-line filters of the brake and supply line protect the compressed-
air brake system from being soiled by solid particles.
The air supply to the brake system takes precedence over the
protection of the brake system against soiling and must be
guaranteed at all times. In case of the filter element being blocked, an
internal bridging-over element opens and unfiltered air passes
through the in-line filter. The brake system remains in full working
order for both directions of flow.
• Clean the two in-line filters approx. every 3 – 4 months,
depending on the operating conditions.
• Replace damaged filter elements.
. Secure tractor and machine against
accidental starting and rolling.
