Page 19: General Description Of Design And Function
4. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF DESIGN AND FUNCTION The T730 is a metal design with open load surface. The trailer features a pneumatic or hydraulic service brake and a parking brake that is manually operated via a screw gear, actuating the friction components of the rear axle service brake. The trailer features a complete signalling and warning system (an electrical system and reflective lights). -
Page 20: Load Body Hydraulic Tipping Mechanism
4.3. Load body hydraulic tipping mechanism The hydraulic mechanism is designed for automatic unloading of the trailer by tipping the load body backwards or sideways. The hydraulic tipping system is fed with oil from the tractor hydraulic system. The hydraulic system includes: the coupling valve plug, hydraulic lines, the single-action hydraulic actuator, the cut-off valve, and connecting and fastening components. -

Page 24: Operation Information
6. OPERATION INFORMATION 6.1. Commissioning the trailer IMPORTANT! • Use only tractors that are fit for service (with the transport hitch, the hydraulic and pneumatic systems, and the signalling/warning system working) Do the following before commissioning the trailer: Understand the names and locations of individual assemblies/components of the trailer check the tyre pressure couple the trailer with the tractor: set the tow bar hitch-ring of the trailer at the trailer transport hitch height;... -
Page 25: Loading The Body
6.2. Loading the body Load the body only when the trailer is coupled with the tractor, parked on level ground and with the tow bar in the forward driving direction. Use mechanical loading equipment (cranes, loaders, conveyors, etc.) to load the trailer. Make sure that all wall and top section locks are engaged before loading the trailer. -

Page 30: Brakes
INFORMATION! • Follow these rules when jacking up the trailer wheel: - couple the trailer with the tractor, move to level ground and engage the tractor parking brake; - chock the wheel that is not being jacked up; - place the jack under the axis and near the jacked up wheel, and lift the wheel so that it clears the ground;... - Page 31 - the wheel brakes work unevenly and out of sync. With the properly adjusted brakes, the braking force (i.e. the total of braking forces at the circumference of the wheels) shall be at least 27% of the permissible total weight of the trailer when decelerating with the service brake;...
- Page 32 INFORMATION! • Before driving, periodically inspect all braking components for proper operation, tightness and clearance. Adjust or repair as necessary. IMPORTANT! • Inspect the brake shoes at least each year. Replace worn shoes. • In order to achieve the required braking performance after replacement of friction components, remember to run them in (by driving with frequent braking), which should be followed by readjustment.
