5.6 CHECKING PLUGS AND CONNECTION SOCKETS

DANGER
Faulty and dirty trailer connections can cause the
braking system to malfunction.
A damaged body of the hydraulic or pneu-
matic hose connector or socket qual-
ifies them for replacement. In the event
of damage to the cover or gasket, re-
place 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
sockets. Before the winter period, it is
recommended to preserve the seal with
Figure 5.4 Trailer connections
preparations intended for this purpose (e.g.
silicone lubricants for rubber elements).
Each time before connecting the ma-
chine, check the technical condition and
degree of cleanliness of connections
and sockets on the agricultural tractor.
If necessary clean or repair tractor sockets.
