Recovery and shunting
Releasing the parking brake by filling the parking brake
circuit with external air
WARNING!
Always support the vehicle on stands when working on vehicles with air
suspension. Empty the air bellows.
When working on vehicles without stands under the frame, there is a
considerable risk of serious personal injury. When the bellows lose air
pressure, the frame will drop onto the axles. This will occur when:
– pressurised lines are removed.
– an air bellows is punctured.
– voltage is applied to the valve for the purpose of emptying the bellows.
– the level sensor lever is moved downwards.
Place chocks on the wheels so that the vehicle cannot roll away when the
parking brake is released.
Fill with air at the connection.
WARNING!
To actuate the parking brake again, the air must be drained via the same
connection.
