Hydraulic Trailer Brakes

Remove cap from trailer brake coupler (A) and connect pressure hose, making sure connections are absolutely clean.

Press down on brake pedal to operate hydraulic trailer brake. The braking effect depends on pressure applied to the brake pedal.

causym CAUTION: Never exceed a speed of 25 km/h (15 mph) when travelling with hydraulically braked trailers.

A complete hydraulic trailer brake system check procedure MUST be carried out in case of tire replacement. Contact your approved John Deere dealer.

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

  • Make sure that the pressure hose is connected.

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

  • Check the hydraulic trailer brake regularly to make sure that it is functioning correctly.
