IMPORTANT: To prevent undue wear on the brakes, observe the following points:

Ensure that both the control and park couplers of the trailer hoses are connected to the corresponding machine couplers.

When driving downhill, select the same gear you would for driving uphill.

Check the hydraulic trailer brake regularly to ensure that it is functioning correctly.

IMPORTANT: Trailer brake system warning (E) indicator will illuminate when service is required on the trailer braking system.

In emergency cases the brake system stop warning (D) indicator will illuminate to indicate that the machine should be stopped.

1. Connect electrical implement connector if equipped. Trailer light indicator (C) will illuminate when ever implement connector is connected.

2. Remove cap from trailer brake control coupler (A) and trailer brake park coupler (B).

3. Ensure that connections are clean. Connect corresponding trailer hoses to tractor couplers.

4. Depress brake pedals to operate the hydraulic trailer brake. The braking effect depends on pressure applied to the brake pedals.

5. The park coupler (B) is vented when the machine is placed in park. This allows hydraulic pressure at the trailer brake pistons to relieve to the machine and the mechanical spring brakes to engage. The trailer park brake remains engaged while the machine is in park. When machine is taken out of park, the hydraulic trailer brake park coupler (B) will pressurize and disengage the spring applied park brake.
