Observe the following safety instructions for interventions in the braking system:
 Observethespecicationsofthevehiclemanufacturer.
 Deactivationwhenthesupplypressureistoolow:Switchthesystemoffif
thevehicle'ssupplypressureistoolow.
 Onlyintervenewiththebrakingsystemifyouhavesufcientknowledgeof
thebrakingsystemandknowandcantakeresponsibilityfortheeffectof
youractionsandalltheirconsequences.
 Thebrakingsystemisunderpressure.Beforeinterveningwiththebraking
system,makesureallreservoirsandlinesarepressureless.
 Withbrakinginterventionvia separately installed valves,thefrontaxle
mustnotbebraked.Makesurethatthevehicle'sfrontaxlecanNOTbe
brakedbythesystem.Brakinginterventionmustonlyoccurviatherear
axle(s).
Thefollowingrulesapplywhereseparatevalvestogetherwiththenecessarypneumaticauxiliarycomponentsare
installedfortheautonomousbrakingfunction:
 Theseauxiliarypneumaticcomponentsshouldbeinstalledwherepossibleclosetotherearaxlesothattheline
lengthstothebrakingsystemarekeptshort.
 Thecomponentscanbeattacheddirectlytotheframe.Itismorepracticable,however,tomounttheentire
assemblyonasteelanglebracket,whichisthenattachedtotheframewithjusttwobolts.Hereisadrawingwith
theappropriatedimensions:
