Foot brakes
Foot brakes are disc type, wet, controlled hydraulically by
the pressure oil from common gearbox filling with
strengthening effect of the pump and with automatic
pressure equalization in brake circuits.
When driving on the road, both pedals must be
connected with a latch. Disconnected pedals for
braking of the right or left wheel should be used
during field work only.
Note: When driving down the steep slope with a trailer or
semitrailer equipped with air or hydraulic brakes you must
use the foot brake even from the beginning of the slope!
During braking with one brake pedal, the brakes
of the trailer are not operating!
Emergency braking
If the pressure in the input hydraulic braking
branch does not reach the values providing the
specified braking effect, this failure is indicated by
activation of the signal lamp on the instrument panel.
At zero pressure in the input hydraulic braking
branch, the braking effect corresponding to
emergency tractor braking is provided.
Brakes of trailers and semi-trailers
Connection of the ABS system of the trailer or semi-trailer
If the trailer or semi-trailer is equipped with the ABS
system, insert the control cable of this system into the
socket located in the rear part of the tractor, near outlets
of the outer hydraulic circuit.
