5.3.6 CLEANING AND MAITAINANCE OF PNEUMATIC LINE CONNECTORS
AND SOCKETS
DANGER
Faulty and dirty trailer connections can cause the braking system to malfunction.
A damaged connector body or socket should be replaced. In the event of damage to the
cover or seal, replace these elements with new, functional ones. Contact of pneumatic
connection seals with oils, grease, gasoline etc. may damage them and accelerate the aging
process.
If the trailer is disconnected from the tractor, connections should be protected with covers or
placed in their designated holders. Before the winter period, it is recommended to preserve
the seal with preparations intended for this purpose (e.g. silicone lubricants for rubber
elements).
Each time before connecting the machine, check the technical condition and cleanliness of
connections and sockets in the agricultural tractor. If necessary, clean or repair tractor
sockets.
Checking trailer connections:
• every 12 months (before the winter period).
• each time before connecting the trailer to the tractor or connecting a second
trailer.
