1. Open the rear cover outside driver’s cab and pull out the inlet tube, and then fill brake oil into
the oil cup until the oil level up to 3/4 to 4/5 of the cup height, or between the upper and lower mark.
After that, return the inlet tube to its previous place and secure the oil cup cap. Refer to Table 1-4 in
2. Remove the rubber cover on the branch cylinder bleeding cap, and do the following:
Repeat the said procedure until there is no bubble in the brake oil spraying out of the bleeding
cap. And then tighten the bleeding cap immediately, and install the rubber cover. During operation pay
attention to the oil level in the oil cup and replenish oil according to requirements.
Loose the lock nut on the pushrod and rotate the pushrod to prolong or shorten its length according
to actual requirement. A clearance of 3±0.5mm between the bearing end face of clutch sleeve and the
end face of declutching lever should be ensured. Tighten the lock nut after adjustment.

The braking system consists of service brake (foot brake), parking brake (hand brake) and auxiliary brake
a. Service brake
The service brake is controlled by foot pedal (No. 28 in Fig. 3-1), and it is double-circuit air
pressure brake. The max. working pressure is 0.8Mpa. The 1st circuit acts on the wheels of the 1st
axle, and the 2nd circuit acts on the wheels of the 2nd and 3rd axles. In case the air pressure of one air

reservoir in two circuits drops below 0.45Mpa, park the truck at a safe place immediately and find the
cause.
Repeated braking in a short time may cause pressure down below 0.45Mpa.
b. Parking brake
Parking brake is air-release spring brake acting on the mid and rear axles. It gives effect by the
spring-loaded air chamber on each axle. After stopping the truck, applying hand brake handle can hold
the truck stationary. Only after hand brake is released and the pressure in the 23rd circuit of braking
system is more than 0.45Mpa (low pressure warning lamp goes out) and hand brake indicator lamp
goes out, as well as the spring returns to its original place by the force of compressed air, the parking
brake could be released fully. Hand brake may be used as emergency brake when service brake does
not work. When service brake is damaged and the vehicle has to be towed, apply hand brake instead of
service brake.
c. Auxiliary brake
Auxiliary brake is engine exhaust brake. In order to prolong brake life during a long downhill
travel, press down exhaust brake switch (No. 1 in Fig. 3-4), and then the butterfly-valve on exhaust pipe
is closed by the action of solenoid valve and air cylinder, consequently engine exhaust brake is realized.
Never disengage gearbox and depress clutch pedal while engine exhaust brake is used.

Do not forget to drain the water condensed in the air reservoir before traveling.
The run-in mileage for a new truck is 1500km. Before run-in, routine inspection should be carried out for
1. After cold starting, do not accelerate the engine immediately, firstly let it run at 1000r/min of idle speed
for 3~5 minutes. Increase engine speed only when normal working temperature is reached. In run-in time, the
engine rotation speed should be limited within 80% of its highest speed.
2. During run-in time, the truck should travel on level and flat roads.

3. In traveling, select proper shift gear according to load and road conditions. And avoid abrupt accelerating
4. Check and control engine oil pressure and coolant working temperature.
5. Check regularly the temperature of mid and rear axle wheel hubs and brake drum. If serious overheating
6. After initial traveling of 50km or every time changing tires, tighten wheel nuts according to the specified
torque (Refer to Table 6-1 in XZ20G.5 Truck crane chassis maintenance manual).
7. After run-in time, check and maintain the truck according to the “First check” items specified in
XZ20G.5 Truck crane chassis maintenance manual and the requirements in engine and transmission operation
manuals.
