Brake Hook-up (Option)
Two TCN5107-5313 braking (trailer braking) systems are
available:
• Dual-line air system (Figure 9) with wheel chocks
(Figure 11) for parking and
• Single-line hydraulic (Figure 10) with wheel chocks
(Figure 11).
In both systems, the tractor’s trailer brake remote port(s)
operate a hydraulic slave cylinder on the Turbo-Chisel.
Tractor trailer braking systems are normally integrated
with the tractor brakes, and operate the trailer brakes
when tractor brakes are used during tractor movement.
The trailer braking system may or may not be integrated
with the tractor parking brake system.
Trailer brakes typically are not automatically engaged
when the tractor transmission is in Park, and may not be
engaged by any tractor Emergency Brake.
Both brake systems include four chock blocks to be man-
ually installed for parking the TCN5107-5313. The tractor
cannot set the implement wheel chocks.
Braking Hazards:
Make sure the operator understands when Turbo-Chisel
brakes are engaged and when they are released (make a record
of tractor behaviour on page 33).
Also understand and comply with tractor operational restric-
tions when trailer brakes are used. For example, it is generally
necessary to inter-tie split brakes, and avoid differential
(steering braking) if trailer brakes are used.
