Piston pump (15) supplies the hydraulic oil that is required in order to operate the brake and the hydraulic fan system. Oil flows from the pump (15)
to the control manifold (18). The control manifold includes the following components: a pressure relief valve, a shuttle valve, an inverse shuttle
valve, a cut in valve, a cut out valve and a priority valve.

The control manifold (18) controls the flow of oil from the pump (15) to the brake accumulators (7) and (8). The control manifold (18) also controls
the flow of oil to the gear motor (21) for the hydraulic fan. A pressure relief valve that is located in the control manifold (18) limits the oil pressure
that flows from the pump (15) .

The control manifold (18) contains a priority valve. When this valve is closed, oil flows to an inverse shuttle valve that is located in the control
manifold (18). The oil then flows to the brake accumulators (7) and (8). When the accumulators are charged, the priority valve opens. Oil then flows
to the gear motor (21) for the hydraulic fan system. A port in the control manifold (18) connects to the brake oil pressure switch (12). The brake oil
pressure switch (12) monitors the oil pressure in the brake accumulators. If the oil pressure in either brake accumulator drops below the minimum
threshold, switch (12) actuates.

Brake accumulators (7) and (8) contain a precharge of dry nitrogen. When oil flows into an accumulator, the pressure oil moves the piston inside
the accumulator. The piston moves against the charge of dry nitrogen gas. This puts compression on the dry nitrogen until the oil pressure reaches
the cut out pressure. The oil also flows to the service brake control valve (6) .

Service brake control valve (6) is in the circuit from the accumulators to the service brakes. When a brake pedal is pushed, oil from each
accumulator flows to the service brakes. The service brakes are then applied.

When service brake control valve (6) is released, the lines from the accumulators are blocked. The brake lines are connected to the drain port. This
allows the service brakes to release. The supply oil is then dumped back into the hydraulic oil tank (17) .

Each brake application removes a quantity of oil from the accumulators. The piston in each accumulator moves toward the oil end until the oil
pressure decreases to the cut-in pressure. The control manifold (18) then permits oil from the pump (15) to flow to brake accumulators (7) and (8).
This occurs until the pressure increases to the cut out pressure.

The hydraulic circuits for the front service brakes and for the rear service brakes are completely separate. Applying force to a brake pedal causes
the tandem spools in service brake control valve (6) to move. This allows oil from both accumulator (7) and accumulator (8) to flow to the disc
brakes in each axle housing. The pressure of the oil causes the wet disc brakes that are enclosed in each axle to engage. The heat from the friction
of the brakes is removed by the oil in the axle housings.

Parking brake control valve (13) connects to the brake accumulator for the rear service brakes (8). Parking brake control valve (13) can be
actuated manually by pulling out on the parking brake control knob.

A decrease in brake oil pressure causes pressure switch (12) to actuate. This causes a Warning Category 3 alarm to occur. At the same time, a
spool in parking brake control valve (13) is overcome by the force of a spring in the control valve. This spool movement is due to a lack of adequate
oil pressure. With no oil pressure in the brake system, actuator (10) engages parking brake (9) .

If brake oil pressure is lost during machine operation, the transmission shifts to neutral. However, the transmission only shifts to neutral when the
machine is in either first speed forward or first speed reverse.

A drive-through feature allows an operator to engage the transmission in either first speed forward or reverse. This can be accomplished by first
moving the transmission direction selector to the NEUTRAL position. Then move the transmission direction selector to either first speed forward or
reverse. For example, move the transmission direction selector to the following positions, 1F-N-1F or 1R-N-1R.
