1.6 Brake system
The chassis is equipped with a hydraulic or pneumatic brake system and parking brake.
CAUTION
Environmental protection measures:
Legal requirements for avoidance of waste and correct recycling/disposal should be
adhered to during all work on and with the brake system.
Particular care should be taken during maintenance work to ensure that substances which
are harmful to water, such as
– lubricating grease and oil,
– hydraulic fluids,
– liquids utilised in pneumatic systems,
do not pollute the soil or penetrate sewage systems. These substances should be stored,
transported, collected and disposed of in suitable containers.
CAUTION
Work on the brake system should only be entrusted to trained skilled personnel. The
effectiveness of the brakes should be checked and confirmed through a brake test after
all work on the brake system.

1.6.1 Hydraulic brake system

In the case of hydraulic brake systems, a simple hydraulic cylinder is mounted for the
actuation of each brake lever. Actuation and control of the brake is realised through the
tractor vehicle. A retraction spring is located in the interior of the hydraulic cylinder which
ensures that the cylinder piston is retracted and, consequently, relieves pressure on the
brake.

1-4 Hydraulic brake system

1 Parking brake steel cable 4 Brake lever

2 Hydraulic cylinder with internal 5 Rack and pinion
retraction spring
3 Hydraulic line to hydraulic cylinder 6 Brake shaft

1-5
 Brake pads should be checked if the hydraulic cylinder braking distance is no longer
adequate. If the brake pads are still in good condition, the braking distance can be
shortened by resetting the brake lever on the rack and pinion.

1.6.2 Pneumatic brake system

The pneumatic brake system consists of a compressed air tank, a braking force controller,
the brake lines and a piston cylinder for each wheel. The braking force controller should
always be configured to suit the loaded condition of the material container.
1 Braking force controller
2 Compressed air tank
3 Water drainage valve
Load symbols on braking force controller:
= Release position
= Empty
= Half load
= Full load

1-5 Compressed air tank with brake

force controller

CAUTION
Unadapted braking action caused by incorrect adjustment of the braking force controller
can lead to damage and accidents.
The braking force controller should be set to the correct position to suit the load in the
case of a chassis with a pneumatic brake system.
The compressed air tank is designed for a maximum operating pressure of 15.5 bar. The
compressed air tank should be drained regularly using the water drainage valve (1-5/3) to
ensure the functionality of the brake system.
1 Brake cylinder
2 Brake lever
3 Traction cable for parking brake
4 Brake shaft
5 Rack and pinion

1-6 Pneumatic brake

The brake system operating pressure is 7.5 bar. Actuation of the brake is realised through
the tractor vehicle. The spreader is automatically braked (provided sufficient air is
available in the compressed air tank) if the brake line is damaged or the lines from the
tractor vehicle are disconnected.

1-6
 The release valve on the brake force controller should be set at the release position for
shunting of the spreader vehicle without connected brake lines.
Brake pads should be checked if the brake cylinder braking distance is no longer
adequate. If the brake pads are still in good condition, the braking distance can be
shortened by resetting the brake lever on the rack and pinion.

1.6.3 Parking brake

All chassis are equipped with a mechanical parking brake to secure the spreader vehicle
when it is stopped or during maintenance and repair work. The function of this brake is the
same in both hydraulic and pneumatic brake systems.
WARNING
The parking brake should not be used for braking the vehicle.

1.6.3.1 Parking brake in a hydraulic brake system

1 Actuation lever for parking brake
2 Parking brake gear
3 Parting protection element

1-7 Parking brake in a hydraulic brake

system

The parking brake is actuated via the actuation lever (1-7 Parking brake in a hydraulic
brake system/1).
The brake pads should be checked if the parking brake braking distance is no longer
adequate, the braking distance should be shortened and/or the traction cable on the
adjusting screw (1-8/1) adjusted by repositioning the brake lever on the rack and pinion.
1 Adjusting screw

1-8 Fixing screw

1.6.3.1.1 Parting protection element
The parting protection element triggers an emergency braking should the chassis part
company with the tractor vehicle. The parking brake is automatically actuated by the
pulling cable (1-7 Parking brake in a hydraulic brake system/3) and actuation lever (1-7
Parking brake in a hydraulic brake system/1).

1.6.3.2 Parking brake in a pneumatic brake system

The parking brake is actuated via the hand crank (1-9 Parking brake in a pneumatic brake
system/3). The brake pads should be checked and/or the brake lever adjusted on the
brake shaft if the crank braking distance is no longer adequate.
1 Traction cable for parking brake
2 Securing bracket for hand crank
3 Hand crank for parking brake

1-9 Parking brake in a pneumatic

brake system

1.7 Hydraulic pump

The hydraulic pump is an integral part of the spreader vehicle hydraulic system and is
powered by the tractor vehicle via a cardan shaft. The required cardan shaft speed is
1000 rpm (min-1).
The hydraulic pump is practically maintenance free.
The oil level in the transmission gears (TA model only) should be checked regularly. The
gear oil should be visible in the inspection glass. An oil change should be realised after
500 operating hours and at least once a year. The filling volume is 0.6 l. A class
MCL ISO 220 gear oil should be used.

1.8 Electrical system

The electrical system on the chassis consists of the lighting required under StVZO. The
power supply is provided from the tractor vehicle via a 7-pole socket (1-10/1) and a
distributor box. The distributor box is usually mounted in the left-hand side compartment of
the material container.

 1-10 Socket power supply

NOTE
Please refer to the "Lighting" electrical circuit diagram for information on the lighting system
wiring.

1.9 Support fixture

The hydraulic support fixture is located on the left-hand side of the drawing fixture. The
hydraulic stand (1-11 Support fixture/4) can be extended to the desired height using
the manual hydraulic pump (1-11 Support fixture/2). The relief valve should be
closed when extending (hand wheel (1-11 Support fixture/3) to right).
WARNING
The support fixture should be folded up and secured with the securing pin and spring-
loaded bolt prior to driving.
The hydraulic stand is retracted by an internal spring after the relief valve is opened (hand
wheel (1-11 Support fixture/3) to left).

2.2.1 Changing the transmission gear oil

NOTE
The gear oil should only be changed when it is at operating temperature (warm).

1. Switch off the hydraulic pump and secure against reactivation.

CAUTION
Observe the following when changing gear oil:
Hot gear oil can cause scalding. Gear oil can cause skin rashes or other
impairments to health. Avoid extended skin contact with hydraulic oil. Wash thoroughly
after every skin contact

2. Position a suitable container (min. 1 l)

under the transmission gears.
3. Open the transmission gear drainage
screw (2-1 Transmission gears/2) and
collect emerging gear oil.

2-1 Transmission gears

CAUTION
Environmental protection measures:
Gear oil should be prevented from penetrating the soil, water or sewage systems.
Ensure that gear oil is disposed of safely and in a manner that does not harm the
environment. Valid national regulations for the protection of waterways and governing the
disposal of used oil and waste should be observed.

4. Check the drainage screw seal ring to ascertain whether it can be reused, replace if
necessary.
5. Screw in the drainage screw and seal ring.
6. Unscrew the closure screw (2-1 Transmission gears/1) and fill gear oil (0.6 l) via
the filling aperture.
7. Check the gear oil level in the inspection glass (2-1 Transmission gears/3). The
gear oil should be visible in the inspection glass.
8. Screw in the closure valve (2-1 Transmission gears/1).
9. Switch on the hydraulic pump and allow it to run for 1-2 minutes.
10. Check the transmission gears for leaks during and after the test run.
