A - Hydraulic Brake Coupler
Remove dust cover from hydraulic trailer brake coupler (A). Connect pressure hose to brake coupler, making sure hose end and coupler are clean.IMPORTANT: To reduce brake wear, make sure pressure hose is connected, select same gear for both downhill and uphill driving, and check hydraulic trailer brake regularly for correct functionality.
Depress brake pedals to operate hydraulic trailer brake. Braking effect depends on pressure applied to brake pedals.
Bring tractor-trailer to complete stop, shift transmission to PARK before dismounting tractor and disconnecting hydraulic lines from couplers. Seal connections with dust covers whenever hoses are disconnected.
