Page 6: Description Of The Machine
5. Description of the machine Functional description The drive shaft powers a compressor which generates negative pressure (vacuum) in the tank container. By connecting a suction hose to the quick coupler, the slurry can be sucked into the tank by means of the negative pressure. - Page 7 Layout of the machine The following figure provides an overview of the most important components and assemblies and shows where they are installed on the machine: Siphon & additional siphon (5.2.7) Pressure gauge (5.2.8)) Hydraulic gate valve Filling dome preparation (rear) (5.2.6) (5.2.4)
- Page 8 5.2.3 Manway (standard) The manway serves as an entry point for performing necessary repairs or cleaning work on the vacuum tanker. Fig. 4 Manway The container must be cleaned and well ventilated before/during any work in the tank. Open all gate valves and covers. The container must be depressurised. Caution: risk of suffocation in the case of insufficient cleaning or ventilation! 5.2.4 Hydraulic gate valve, rear (standard)
- Page 9 5.2.8 Pressure gauge (standard) The container pressure must be checked on a regular basis via the pressure gauge. Fig. 10 Pressure gauge Maximum container pressure 0.5 bar 5.2.9 Quick coupler (standard) The vacuum tanker can be filled by connecting a suction hose to the quick coupler.
- Page 10 5.2.14 Suction nozzle (optional) The suction nozzle – in combination with a docking station – enables convenient suction without having to leave the tractor cab. It is operated via the hydraulic control of the tractor or tank. Fig. 16 Suction nozzle 5.2.15 Hydraulic compressor changeover (optional) The suction/discharge function can be controlled from the tractor cab via the hydraulic compressor changeover.

7. Start-up Check before start-up Check to ensure that all safety devices (covers, panels etc.) are in proper condition and are attached to the trailer in protective position. Lubricate the tank trailer according to the lubrication schedule. Then check all screw connections specified below for tightness. Check the tyres to ensure the air pressure is correct (as per manufacturer specifications). -
Page 13: Hydraulic Brake System
Hand brake lever (overrun brake) – parking brake Applying the brake: To activate the hand brake, pull the actuating lever towards the drawbar eye. The brake locks automatically. Releasing the brake: Press in the button at the tip of the actuating lever to unlock the brake. Move the lever towards the container while keeping the button depressed. - Page 14 Installing forced steering on the towing vehicle (optional) The customer mast adapt the forced steering individually to each towing vehicle. This means that the settings must be re- adapted every time the towing vehicle is changed. The dimensions on the Ø 80 ball head coupling and the clearances according to ISO 500 and ISO 730 must be applied. Procedure Mounting of the steering cylinder at the same axial and vertical height as the ball head coupling on the towing...

9. Use and operation Trailer operation 9.1.1 Setting up the trailer coupling on the towing vehicle Move the towing device of the towing vehicle to the correct height. Position the trailer coupling (A) on the towing vehicle so that the tank trailer is horizontal when it is hitched and so that, when the trailer is attached, there is sufficient space between the drive shaft and the drawbar (A1), especially during tight... - Page 17 General safety and operating instructions The following section contains some general notes on safety and operation for working with the tank trailer, repeated and summarized together for better clarity: In addition to the information in these operating instruction, you must also observe the generally applicable safety and accident prevention regulations.
- Page 18 Operation via control panel (control symbols) If your tanker features a hydraulic control block, specific functions are operated via a control panel. The following symbols represent the relevant functions. Fig. 36 Control panel Storage box – accessories Fig. 37 When disconnected, the control panel must be placed in the designated storage box to protect it against moisture.
- Page 19 Operation via tractor control units If the tanker does not feature a hydraulic control block, all functions are operated directly via tractor control units. Summary of tank functions with pressure sequence valve: If a pressure sequence valve is installed, the following 3 functions can be controlled with one tractor control unit: ...

Page 21: Operation
Operation 9.9.1 Filling process Suction process via quick coupler: Connect the suction hose to the quick coupler. Open the suction valve by hand. Switch the compressor to suction via the compressor changeover. Switch on the drive shaft. Check the compressor oil level before starting! Verify that the oiler on the compressor is configured correctly. - Page 22 Optimum emptying can be ensured by raising the tank tipping cylinder. Sprinkler nozzle (special equipment) 9.9.3 Fliegl vacuum tankers can not only be equipped with a compressor, but also with a combination of compressor and centrifugal pump. In this case, the compressor is primarily used to suck in the substrate, while the centrifugal pump is responsible for the discharge process via the sprinkler nozzle.
