Brakes
Hydrostatic brake (driving brake)
Moving the drive lever to the mid-position bra-
kes the machine so that it stops.
N.B. The hydrostatic brake does not function
when the gear is in neutral!
N.B. The trailer drive must always be engaged
when you are driving down a steep slope!
Hydraulic foot brake (driving brake)
The machine is braked by treading on the pedal.
Mechanical parking brake
The parking brake consists of a mechanical disc
brake working on the gearbox. The brake is app-
lied with a brake lever in the cab.
Adjustment of the parking brake
If necessary, the parking brake can be adjusted
with the adjusting screw on the brake unit. The
adjusting screw is accessible inside the left-hand
track, when the protective plate of the brake unit
has been removed.
Hydraulic multiple-disc brake (reserve brake)
The brake of the trailer drive is applied and re-
leased with an electric pushbutton in the cab. The
trailer brake must not be engaged during driving.
If the hydraulic pressure drops below 10 bar, the
multiple-disc brake is automatically applied.
N.B. If the machine does not have any hydrau-
lic pressure, the brakes must be released before
towing! See page 32.
