Introduction 3
3 Introduction
Tractors of agricultural and forestry trailers equipped with a compressed air braking
system, which play an important role in the tractor industry of today.
Many vehicle manufacturers are following the trend of installing these systems in-
house delivering them via tractor-trailer unit. Also the retro-fitting of vehicles which
are already initially registered will become more popular so that the workshops
may see an increase in these retrofits.
This development is a consequence of the structural changes in agriculture. The
trend towards tractors with more engine power resulted in the use of larger trailers
for heavier loads. In view of today's traffic situation, safe braking can no longer be
ensured by conventional mechanical brakes; but only by using air or hydraulic
braking systems. Many responsible farm managers have clearly recognised the
advantages of air braking systems and equipped their tractor-trailer combinations
accordingly.
The WABCO air braking system for agricultural and forestry applications delivers
the following benefits:
• A sensitive and graduated braking of the tractor-trailer combination is possible.
• A predominant braking of the trailer prevents jack-knifing.
• Overrunning impacts are prevented.
• In case of an accidental separation of the tractor-trailer combination, the trailer
brakes automatically.
Notes
This brochure shall be a manual for workshops to provide them a survey on the
range of air braking systems for tractor-trailer combinations as well as information
on the installation.

4 Safety information
4 Safety information
Observe all required regulations and instructions:
– Read this publication thoroughly.
Adhere to all instructions, information and safety information to prevent injury to
persons and damage to property.
WABCO will only guarantee the security, reliability and performance of their
products and systems if all information in this publication is adhered to.
– Make sure to follow the specifications and instructions of the vehicle manufac-
turer.
– Maintain all accident regulations of the business as well as regional and na-
tional regulations.
– Do-it-yourself trailer constructions, unauthorised modifications of the braking
system as well as poor care and maintenance of the installed tractor and trailer
brake can cause major accidents. Each vehicle with traffic participation must
conform to all legal requirements. So a type approval must be granted for each
tractor and trailer. For production vehicles this is the "General certification (ABE),
for individual vehicles the individual certification (EBE)". In the case of any
modification to the braking system, e.g. that certification becomes invalid.
Prevent accidents through regular checks / visual inspections of the braking system:
– Regularly check the following components and replace them as soon as you
identify wear or damage:
• Brake pedal (check for slip-resistance)
• Brake shoes, linings and linkage.
• Hoses
• Compressed air ports (check for leaks)
– Use only original WABCO replacement parts when replacing devices or compo-
nents.
– Regularly check the following components of the braking system for proper
function:
• Air reservoirs (pressure in the air reservoirs must not drop to less than 0.2 bar
below the shut-off pressure specified by the vehicle manufacturer within 5 min-
utes while the engine is idling.)
• Breakaway and parking brake
• Air reservoir (drain if there is condensation)
– Never clean the devices of the compressed air braking system with a high-
pressure cleaner to prevent plastic parts and gaiters from becoming damaged.

Release position
• Trailer of speeds up to 25 km/h can be equipped with a single line braking sys-
tem as well as with a dual line braking system.
• Trailers with a maximum design speed above 25 km/h must be equipped with a
dual line braking system.
• Trailers with a maximum design speed above 25 km/h, which were initially reg-
istered before April 1, 1974, must be also equipped with a dual line braking sys-
tem since June 1, 1989.
Tractors for towing such trailers have to be equipped with a suitable supply system,
see chapter 7 "Diagram", page 14.
The final decision concerning the type of braking system is made by the farmer's
trailer pool. Unless the farmer decides upon a combined single-line or dual-line
braking system. In this case, he has to bear in mind that the single line braking sys-
tem of a trailer cannot be actuated when it is linked behind a trailer with a dual line
braking system ( or vice versa) however.

All following pressures are guidelines and can deviate depending on the system.
Advantage
If the high-pressure reservoir is drained carefully under normal conditions, no water
can intrude into the braking system.
12
Braking systems 6
6.4 High-pressure braking system (combined single and dual line system)
Function
Dual line braking system
The compressed air flows from the air reservoir to supply port 1 on the trailer con-
trol valve via the pressure reducing valve, to port 11 of the hand brake valve and
the automatic coupling head marked red.
When the service braking system is actuated, an air pressure that is proportional to
the applied foot force is controlled at port 2 of the trailer control valve and reaches
the coupled trailer via the hand brake valve and the automatic coupling head. This
process ensures that the trailer is decelerated in a manner that is aligned with the
braking condition of the tractor.
The same sequence applied when the tractor's parking braking system is operated
via the coupled hand brake valve, only that in this case the trailer deceleration can
not be graduated.
Single line braking system
The air from the reservoir will flow via the pressure reducing valve to the valves
listed under "Dual line braking system" and also to port 1 of the air-controlled trailer
control valve, and via the valve to the coupling head of the single line braking sys-
tem. The outlet pressure at port 2 is limited to 5.2 bar by means of the pressure re-
ducing valve integrated in the trailer control valve.
When the service braking system is operated, an air pressure is controlled at port 4
of the trailer control valve that increases proportionally to the applied foot force and,
due to the reversing function of the device, a proportionally decreasing air pressure
is controlled at port 2. This means that at full brake application, the pressure at port
4 will be 7.2 bar, and at the coupling head it will be 0 bar.
The decreasing pressure at the coupling head and its related line will again reverse
the pressure development in the trailer emergency valve, causing braking of the
trailer corresponding to the braking condition of the tractor.

Single cylinder air compressor 411 003 8
Purpose
Generating compressed air in vehicles, in particular in tractors, self-propelled and
towed machinery.
Setup
The compressor is designed as a single-stage piston compressor and its major
parts are as follows: Crankcase, air-cooled cylinder head, a crankshaft in com-
posed-material plain bearings, a connecting rod, a piston with piston rings, the in-
take and pressure valve, shaft seals for sealing the input and a dip-stick.
Operation
As the piston of the compressor moves downward, it sucks fresh air via suction
tube 0 and the intake vanes.
As the piston moves upwards, the air is compressed and forced through the pres-
sure vane and pressure pipe 2 into the line leading to the air reservoir.
The moving parts are lubricated with engine oil which is filled manually and directly
into the crankcase of the compressor through a filler pipe. The oil then flows to the
bearing positions through oil ducts (in the crankshaft) or in form of an oil mist.

9 Single cylinder air compressor 411 141
Purpose
Generating compressed air in vehicles.
Setup
The compressor is designed as a single-stage piston compressor and its major
parts are as follows: Monoblock housing, lamellar valve, valve plate, air-cooled cyl-
inder head. Further a crankshaft on two composed-material plain bearings. The
drive sealed with a shaft seal, a connecting rod with a composed-material plain
bearing, pistons with piston rings.
Operation
As the piston of the compressor moves downward, it sucks fresh air via suction
tube 0 and the intake vanes.
As the piston moves upwards, the air is compressed and forced through the pres-
sure vane and pressure pipe 2 into the line leading to the air reservoir.
For lubricating the moving parts, the compressor is connected to the engine's oil
circuit, the oil reaching the individual bearings via oil ducts (in the crankshaft), or in
the form of oil mist. The oil is returned either directly into the engine's crankcase
through the compressor's base or a pipe.

10 Brake cylinder 423 000
Brake chamber
Purpose
To generate the brake force for the wheel brakes.
It can also be used to actuate other facilities, e.g. for clamping, raising or gear-
shifting.
Operation
If the diaphragm (b) is applied with compressed air via connection A or B, it moves
to the right together with the piston (a). The generated piston force is applied via
the push-rod (c) to the hinged brake lever (slack adjuster) and therefore onto the
wheel brake. When draining the brake cylinder, the spring (d) presses the piston (a)
and the diaphragm (b) back into slack position. The force output of the diaphragm
cylinder depends on the effective diaphragm surface – which can vary in size de-
pending on the camber – and the pressure applied on the diaphragm (b).
Maintenance
– Remove the diaphragm cylinder, even when functioning properly (no leaks, ac-
tuation pressure not greater than 0.5 bar) at least every 2 years.
– Remove and clean the diaphragm cylinder.
– Replace the worn parts.
Special maintenance that extends beyond the legally specified inspections is
not required.
Installation recommendation
– Install the diaphragm cylinder at an upward slant to the yoke joints so that any
water that is let in can run out again.
42
Brake cylinder 423 000 10
– Make sure that the brake line is not lower than the cylinder heads when install-
ing, so that the brake line and the connection points will not be damaged (by
ground-contact).
Two couplings on the diaphragm cylinder simplify the line route, which can be
used optionally by implementing the screw-plug.
When installing the cylinder or when adjusting the brake, the push-rod cannot
be pulled out.
– Make sure that in slack position the piston and the diaphragm are pressed
against the housing by the spring built into the device (see the following installa-
tion diagram).
– To prevent damages to parts of the cylinder, make sure that a rod that is acting
on the brake lever does not pull out the mechanical parking brake assembly for
the push-rod when operating the mechanism.
Instead of the round-hole yoke joint, equip the diaphragm cylinder with a yoke
joint with a slot. This enables a separate actuation of the parking brake assem-
bly over 2/3 of the maximum cylinder stroke.
If the diaphragm cylinders have been installed standing up for trailing steering axles
( piston rod pointing up), the sealed version is recommended by the axle manufac-
turers:

Air dryer 432 410 / 432 415 / 432 433 11
Purpose
Drying of the compressed air supplied by the compressor by extracting the mois-
ture present in the air.
Operation
The compressed air entering the air dryer at port 1 and chamber A flows via the
fine filter 4 and the annular duct b to the upper side of the granulates cartridge 2.
From here (chamber a) the compressed air flows through the cartridge 2, its hu-
midity being adsorbed by the surface of the granulate 3. Dried compressed air then
flows via the opening check valve 5 to port 21 and from there to the downstream
components of the compressed air supply system. At the same time, compressed
air flows through the throttling port (c) and port 22 to the regenerating reservoir.
The cut-off pressure reaches chamber D via the hole I and acts on the diaphragm
(m). After the spring force has been overcome, the inlet (n) opens and the piston (d)
which is now pressurised opens the outlet (e). The air delivered by the compressor
now escapes via chamber A, duct C and vent (3). Piston (d) simultaneously acts as
a relief valve. When the pressure is excessive, the piston (d) automatically opens
the outlet (e). If air consumption causes the supply pressure within the system to
fall below the cut-in pressure, the inlet (n) closes and the pressure from chamber B
is reduced through the vent of the unloader valve. The outlet (e) closes and the
drying process begins again.
Maintenance
– Check the air reservoirs for condensation when the vehicle is in operation.
– If the condensation is detected, check the regeneration function and replace the
granulate cartridge if necessary.
Experience has shown that it may be necessary to replace the granulate after
approx. 2 years.
49
11 Air dryer 432 410 / 432 415 / 432 433
Test
– Check the air dryer for proper seal and correct regeneration function.
You have to fill the compressed air system until the pressure regulator switches
off and then shut the engine off for this.
At the vent of the air dryer, the regenerating air must flow out for approx. 10
seconds.

12 Line filter 432 500
Purpose
Protecting the air-braking system from contamination.
Operation
The compressed air delivered to the line filter via port 1 flows through the filter car-
tridge. Due to this any particles of dirt are retained and the compressed air is
cleaned before reaching any down stream appliances from port 2.
The filter cartridge is pushed upward against the force of the pressure spring if the
line filter is blocked. The compressed air then will pass through the line filter with-
out being cleaned.
If port 1 is exhausted while the filter cartridge is blocked, the pressure in port 2 can
push the cartridge downwards against the force of the pressure spring. This en-
sures a return flow from port 2 to port 1.
Maintenance
– Clean the line filter – depending on operating conditions – normally every 3 to 4
months.
This requires taking the filter cartridge out and blowing it out with compressed
air.
– Replace the damaged filter cartridges.
Technical data
Weight 0,44 kg
Installation recommendation
– Install the filter without fastening in the pipe system.
Make sure that there is sufficient space for removing the filter cartridge (see in-
stallation dimensions below).

13 Knuckle joint 433 306
Purpose
Prevents damages on load-independent control valve or automatic brake force
controller.
Only vehicles with leaf-spring suspension.
Operation
In the event of large axle movements in excess of the range of movement of the
automatic load sensing valve, arm (e), which is horizontal while at rest, is deflected
about a fixed point in housing (c). Pressure springs (a and b) exert pressure on ball
(d) providing constant tensional contact with housing (c) until arm (e) again returns
to its normal horizontal position where it is again in full contact with the front face of
the housing. Deformation of the connecting linkage to the automatic load sensing
valve is prevented by a ball joint (f) attached to arm (e).
Maintenance
Special maintenance that extends beyond the legally specified inspections is not
required.
Installation regulations
– Choose the knuckle joint that guarantees that the path exceeding the adjust-
ment range of the controller is not greater than the possible deflection h.
– For trailers – single and dual-axle – take the dimension for the deflection h from
the following diagram:
Legend
h Deflection fmax Max. spring deflection according to the specifications of the axle
manufacturer
56
Knuckle joint 433 306 13
– Fasten the knuckle joint to the single axle or between the two axles of the dual-
axle assembly.
Observe the respective instructions of the vehicle manufacturer in this regard.
– Install the knuckle joint so that its ball joint is seated in the neutral point of the
axle or axles.
The neutral point is the point that is free of outside influence:
• Twisting movement of the axle during braking procedure,
• Wandering in curves with steering axles,
• One-sided load on the axle with uneven streets.
Only the static and dynamic axle changes are permitted to be the initiation for ad-
justing the automatic brake force controller.
– Connect the knuckle joint through a round rod with an M8 thread and hexagon
nut M8 DIN 934 (not included in delivery) with the adjustment lever of the auto-
matic brake force controller. The length of this connection rod depends on the
mounting of the devices on the vehicle.
Depending on the existing fastening capabilities for the connecting rod of the
brake force controller to be used, either leave the connecting rod smooth or ap-
ply an M8 thread of approx. 25 mm in length.
– Thread an M8 DIN 934 hexagon nut onto the thread.
– Screw the other end into the ball joint and secure it with the hexagon nut.
– Carefully debur the smooth ends so that the rubber thrust members are not
damaged.

Check valve 434 014 15
Purpose
To protect the pressurised lines against unintentional venting.
Operation
Air can only pass in the direction indicated by the arrow. Return flow of the air is
prevented by the check valve closing the inlet in the event of a drop in pressure in
the supply line.
When the pressure rises in the supply line, the spring-loaded check valve again
opens the passage which results in an equalisation of pressure.
Maintenance
Special maintenance that extends beyond the legally specified inspections is not
required.
Technical data

Pay attention to the arrow on the housing that shows the direction of flow.
Installation dimensions
59
16 Check valve 434 021
Purpose
To protect the pressurised air reservoirs against unintentional venting.
Operation
The compressed air delivered through the supply line opens the valve (a) and flows
into the air reservoir, provided its pressure is greater than the pressure in the res-
ervoir. Valve (a) will remain open until the pressures in the feed pipe and the reser-
voir are equal.
Any backflow of air from the reservoir is prevented by valve (a), which closed via
pressure spring (b) by the pressure drop in the supply line and the now greater
reservoir pressure.
In the check valve, the air can only flow in the direction from the supply line to the
reservoir.
Maintenance
Special maintenance that extends beyond the legally specified inspections is not
required.
Technical data
Weight 0,15 kg
Installation recommendation
– Bolt the check valve directly into one of the pipe connections for the air reservoir.
– Seal it with a suitable gasket (A 22x27 DIN 7603 Fi).

17 Charging valve 434 100
Purpose
Charging Valve with Return Flow
The passing of compressed air to second air brake reservoir only when the rated
pressure for the system in the first reservoir has been reached.
If the pressure in the first reservoir falls below that of the second reservoir there is
a feedback supply of air from the second reservoir.
Charging valve without return flow
The passing of compressed air to auxiliary equipment (e. g. door actuation, auxil-
iary and parking braking systems, servo clutch, etc.) only when the rated pressure
for the braking system has been reached.
Charging valve with limited return flow
The passing of compressed air to other consumers (e. g. auxiliary and parking
braking systems) only when the rated pressure for the braking system has been
reached. Also the protection of pressure for the towing vehicle in the event of the
trailer's supply line failing.
If the pressure in the air reservoirs of the service braking system drops, part of the
compressed air will return until the closing pressure (which is dependent on the
opening pressure) is reached.
Operation
Connections
With all charging valves, the compressed air passes in the direction of the arrow
into the housing and through port (g) under diaphragm (d) which is pressed into its
seat by adjusting spring (b) and piston (c). When the charging pressure has been
62
Charging valve 434 100 17
reached, the force of the adjusting spring (b) is overcome so that the diaphragm (d)
is lifted from its seat, opening port (e). The air flows directly or after opening of
check valve (h) to the reservoirs or consumers in the direction of the arrow.
With charging valves with return flow the compressed air can flow back from the
second reservoir after the opening of check valve (f) if the pressure in the first res-
ervoir has dropped by more than 0.1 bar.
In the case of charging valves without return flow, return flow is not possible
since non-return valve (h) is kept closed by the higher pressure in the second res-
ervoir.
Charging valves with limited return flow allow the air to flow back until the clos-
ing pressure of diaphragm (d) is reached. When this is reached, adjusting spring (b)
presses diaphragm (d) into its seat via piston (c), thus preventing any further pres-
sure compensation in the direction opposite to the direction of the arrow.
The charging pressure can be adjusted on all types by turning adjusting screw (a).
Turning clockwise increases charging pressure, turning anti-clockwise has the op-
posite effect.
Maintenance
Special maintenance that extends beyond the legally specified inspections is not
required.

Two-way valve with pressure reducer 434 200 18
Purpose
Alternating pressurising of two separate lines or circuits where the pressure applied
to port 12 is reduced.
Operation
If there is pressurisation via port 11, the piston (a) is pressed against the upper
stop position in the housing. The regulated pressure reaches the line going out
from port 2 without being reduced.
If there is pressurisation via port 12, the piston (a) is pressed downwards. The
valve body (b) seals port 11 and opens inlet (c). The compressed air flows into
chamber A to the downstream devices via port 2. If the forces on the lower side of
the piston (a) with a surface being 1.3 times larger than the upper side, is equal to
the one on the upper side, piston (a) will move into its final position and closes inlet
(c). More compressed air will only flow when there is a pressure reduction at port 2.
Maintenance
Special maintenance that extends beyond the legally specified inspections is not
required.

SCR valve 446 091 21
Legend
Purpose
The SCR valve (Selective Catalytic Reduction) is used to control the temperature
of the aqueous urea solution (Ad blue) in SCR system tanks.
Operation
In order to be able to carry out the function, the SCR system must be maintained at
a specific temperature level. The engine and vehicle manufacturers use the cooling
water of the engine for this purpose.
The SCR valve is used to control the flow of cooling water through the system
components. It is actuated through the engine's electronic system and controls the
flow of cooling water through the SCR system components relative to the outside
and coolant temperature.
Depending on the SCR system design (compressed-air assisted, airless), 2/2 or
3/2 directional control valves are used for this purpose.
Maintenance
Special maintenance that extends beyond the legally specified inspections is not
required.

25 Coupling head with valve 452 300
Purpose
For single-line braking systems, to connect the air braking system of the towing
vehicle to that of the trailer.
Operation
Valve (b) is held closed by the force on pressure spring (a) and the compressed air
acting on the lower side of the valve. When the trailer's hose is connected, the pin
of the matching coupling head will force valve (b) downwards so that the com-
pressed air of the towing vehicle can flow to the trailer.
Due to smaller surface under pressure, valve (b) of the automatic coupling head
will open even if it is under pressure. This means that if this type of coupling head
is used, no shut-off cock needs to be fitted for releasing the pressure in the pipe
connected.
When disconnecting the hose from the trailer valve (b) will be pushed upwards due
to the force of the pressure spring (a) and the passage is closed. If the coupling
head is not used it's opening has to be closed with the closing cover (c) to stop dirt
from entering into the compressed air pipes.
Maintenance
– When connecting make sure all the sealing surfaces are clean.
– Replace the damaged sealing washers.
Special maintenance that extends beyond the legally specified inspections is
not required.

Duo-Matic quick-coupling 452 80. 26
Purpose
Connecting the air braking system of the motor vehicle to that of the drawbar trailer.
With Duo-Matic quick couplings, the trailer vehicles can be coupled quicker and
more securely than with standard couplings.
Operation
During the connection of the trailer the handle (b) is pushed down in which case
the protective covers (a and d) will open. The Duo-Matic-Trailer part has to be laid
underneath the protective covers and the handle (b) is released. The torsion spring
(e) acts on the protective covers (a and d) and pulls the trailer parts against the
automatically closing valves (c), in which case those will open and the compressed
air flows into the trailer.
Maintenance
– When connecting, make sure that the sealing surfaces which come into contact
with each other are clean.
– Replace the valves or seal rings if there are leaks.
Special maintenance that extends beyond the legally specified inspections is
not required.

29 Hand brake valve 461 700
Purpose
For dual line braking system.
Direct, non-graduated pressurising of the braking system's pilot line for the trailer in
connection with the mechanical tractor hand brake.
Operation
Inlet valve (b) is closed when in release position. Port 3 leading to the brake cylin-
der line is connected to port 2 via the open outlet valve (d). The line connected to
that port leading to the relay valve is thus also depressurised.
When the handbrake is actuated, lever (a) is pulled out of its ball catch and the
valve rod (c) is raised. Due to this the outlet valve (d) it closed and the inlet valve (b)
is opened. Port 2 receives non-graduated pressure from port 1 of the air reservoir
and the trailer is braked via the relay valve.
When the service brake is actuated, compressed air will flow from port 3 to port 2
and causes the trailer to be braked as well via the relay valve.

32 Steering brake valve 467 399
Brake pedal
Legend
L Left R Right
Purpose
Support for steering action of tractors with hydraulic braking systems by optional
braking of the right or left rear wheel.
Operation
In the idle position, both tractor brake pedals are attached to the valve tappets (1),
closing the ball valves (2) by virtue of the pedal's retracting springs. The ball valves
(2) close the passage from P to A and B.
As both braking pedals are pushed down when driving on the road, the pressure
on the valve tappets (1) is reduced, causing the ball valves (2) to be opened and
release the passage from P to A and B.
When the steering brake is actuated, only one pedal is pushed down and only one
ball valve is opened while the other ball valve remains closed. A connection is es-
tablished either from P to A, or from P to B.
The purpose of two cone check valves (3) is to relieve the pilot line between the
steering brake valve and the wheel brake cylinders if the brake pedals – and ball
valves (2) – are returned more rapidly than the brake shoes are released.

Special maintenance that extends beyond the legally specified inspections is not
required.

Compensating valve 468 397 33
Purpose
Balance the control pressures of the two master brake cylinders when the service
brake is actuated, and to shut off the oil flow from the two master brake cylinders to
the front axle and to the trailer control valve when the steering brake is actuated.
Operation
When not actuated, the two brake pedals are in contact with valve tappet (1), push-
ing it against the force of compression spring (3) to the right. This closes valves (2),
blocking the passage between ports A, B and X (see figure under "Installation di-
mensions" below.)
When both brake pedals are pushed down, valve tappet (1) is released and
pushed towards the left by the force of compression spring (3). Valves (2) open
and a connection is established between ports A, B and X. This causes the braking
pressures of the rear axles (ports A and B) to be balanced, and the brake cylinders
of the front axle and the control piston of the trailer control valve receives braking
pressure from port X.
On the other hand, when the steering brake is actuated, valves (2) remain closed
since the brake pedal which is not pushed down holds valve tappet (1) in its end
position on the right hand side.
Maintenance
Special maintenance that extends beyond the legally specified inspections is not
required.

34 Trailer control valve 470 015 (for two-line trailer braking systems)
Trailer control valve 475 015 0.. 0 and 475 015 2.. 0
Purpose
To control the dual line braking system of the trailer in connection with the trailer's
hydraulic master brake cylinder or its hydraulic transmitter.
With many 2-circuit, hydraulically controlled trailer control valves (see * in following
table), there is an additional actuation, by which a trailer braking procedure is al-
ready actuated before the tractor brake becomes effective.
Operation
In the release position, compression spring (e) pushes valve sleeve (d) onto inlet
(c), keeping it closed. Port 2 is connected with exhaust 3 via outlet (b).
When the brake pedal is depressed, the hydraulic control pressure will act on pis-
ton (h) via port 4, displacing that piston, together with graduating piston (a), to the
right. Outlet (b) is closed, inlet (c) opens and the compressed air present at port 1
flows to the trailer emergency valve via port 2. The compressed air acting on
graduating piston (a) moves it to the left against the hydraulic control pressure and
inlet (c) is closed. The end position has now been reached.
The 1-circuit hydraulically actuated and pneumatically pre-actuated trailer control
valves (see * in following table) are equipped with an additional pneumatic control
connection. This permits an upstream 3/2-way valve to pressurise port 42 and thus
chamber A with a supply pressure when the brake pedal is depressed. Piston (a)
closes outlet (b), opening Inlet (c). Thus a small amount of control pressure
reaches the trailer emergency valve via port 2 before control pressure builds up at
port 4.
Any increase in the hydraulic control pressure will also cause the pressure at port 2
to be increased. As the brake pedal is released, ports 4 and 42 will be depressur-
ised, causing the pressure in port 2 to return graduating piston (a) to its original po-
sition. Outlet (b) opens, and port 2 is vented via exhaust 3.
The trailer control valve also has a hand brake lever (f) which, as the hand brake is
actuated, will push piston (a) against valve sleeve (d), thus opening inlet (c), caus-
ing full braking of the trailer.
Maintenance
Special maintenance that extends beyond the legally specified inspections is not
required.
