A - Hydraulic Trailer Brake Coupler


CAUTION: Avoid possible injury from losing control of tractor when operating on downhill slopes. Tractor wheels may lock and skid on steep or slippery downhill slopes.

IMPORTANT: Operating tractor with three scrapers requires tractor and all scraper pans be equipped with hydraulic trailer brakes. Reference Towing Loads and Transporting with Ballast in Transport section of this Operator's Manual.

Remove cap from trailer brake coupler (A). Ensure the hose coupler is clean before connecting to trailer brake coupler.

Depress brake pedal to operate hydraulic trailer brake. Braking effect depends on pressure applied to brake pedal.

IMPORTANT: Recommendations to reduce brake wear:

  • Make sure pressure hose is connected.
  • Select same gear for both downhill and uphill driving.
  • Check hydraulic trailer brake regularly for proper operation.
