During the first operating hours of a newly purchased trailer (i.e. after approximately 100 km of mileage) and further operation (i.e. after the next 1500 or 2000 km), check the wheel bearing clearance and adjust, if necessary.

To do so:

1. Couple the trailer with the tractor and engage the tractor parking

brake.

2. Jack up one side of the trailer to lift the wheel from the ground on

this side and secure the trailer against falling.

3. If the wheel has excessive clearance, remove the hub cap and

remove the crown nut clevis pin.

4. Rotate the wheel and tighten the crown nut at the same time until

the wheel stops turning.

5. Loosen the crown nut by 1/6 to 1/3 of the full turn, i.e. until the

nearest clevis pin groove is aligned with the hub pivot hole.

6. Secure the nut with a new clevis pin, and reinstall and retighten the

hub cap.

4.2. WHEELS – TYRES

Servicing of the tyres involves checking their condition visually and checking the tyre pressure. It is also essential to check that the tyres have no cracks that expose or damage the carcass, and that the hubs, wheel disks and their fastening are in good condition.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL - T739 FARMING TRUCK TRAILER

ONGOING ADJUSTMENTS

Periodically inspect the wheel nuts (i.e. the condition and tightness before each use of the trailer); retighten if necessary.

ATTENTION!

Periodically inspect the wheel nuts (i.e. the condition and tightness before each use of the trailer); retighten if necessary.

ATTENTION!

IMPORTANT

Nut tightening torques for different thread sizes: M18x1.5 = 270 Nm. M20x1.5 = 350 Nm. M22x1.5 = 475 Nm.

After the first travels with loads and after each 100 km, inspect the tightness of wheel nuts and retighten if necessary. Check the tyre pressure. The tyre pressure rating on the symbol at the trailer wheels applies to transport at the maximum permissible speed (at the maximum payload).

4.3. BRAKES

4.3.1. BRAKES – SERVICING THE BRAKE PNEUMATIC SYSTEM

When servicing the trailer, check the tightness and the condition of parts and connections of the braking system, and periodically drain the water condensate from the air tank.

Check the leak tightness of the system at the rated pressure of

approx. 800 kPa for the two-line system.

Leaks are detected by a distinct hiss or air bubbles (after coating with soapy water) at the points of air escape from the system. If the leaks are caused by damaged seals, lines or other parts (valves, actuators, etc.), replace them.

Drain the water from the air tank by tilting the drain valve stem to the side when the tank is pressurised; the drain valve must also be unscrewed from the tank and cleaned of accumulated dirt once a year, before the winter season.

4.3.2. BRAKES – ADJUSTMENT OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM COMPONENTS

When servicing the trailer, check the condition of parts and connections of the braking system, and periodically inspect the lubrication of control elements.

Adjust the brakes when the following occurs:

• there is a n excessive c learance be tween the sh oes and the dru m from

the brake shoe wear, resulting in decreased braking performance;

• the wheel brakes work unevenly and out of sync.

With the properly adjusted brakes, the braking force (i.e. the total of braking forces at the circumference of the wheels) shall be at least 27% of the permissible total weight of the trailer when decelerating with the service brake; the braking force (i.e. the total of braking forces at the circumference of the wheels) when actuating the parking brake shall be at least 16% of the permissible total weight of the trailer. Both wheels on the same axle should be stopped evenly; the brake force differential between the left and right trailer side shall not exceed 30%, with 100% being the higher force.

Park the trailer so that the rear wheels rotate freely. Loosen the nut (4) so that the arm (2) is able to move against the shaft (1). Retighten the nut (4) when the position of the shaft (1) against the arm (2) results

ONGOING ADJUSTMENTS

in a slight rubbing of the brake shoes against the drum while turning the wheel. Repeat for the other wheel.

After the correct adjustment of friction components, the wheel should rotate smoothly, without cogging or evident resistance (other than caused by rubbing of the brake shoes against the drum). Slight rub of the shoes against the drum, especially on a brand new trailer or following replacement of the shoes is normal.

After completing the adjustment, check and adjust the parking brake. The parking brake is adjusted by setting the cable length that couples the expander shaft lever with the engaging mechanism. The required sum of braking forces should be produced at the maximum force applied to the hand crank of 40 daN (at the right angle between the cable and the expander shaft lever).

Before driving, periodically inspect all braking components for proper operation, tightness and clearance. Adjust or repair as necessary.

ATTENTION!

Inspect the brake shoes at least each year. Replace worn shoes. In order to achieve the required braking performance after replacement of friction components, remember to run them in (by driving

5.1. LOADING THE BODY

Load the body only when the trailer is coupled with the tractor, parked on level ground and with the tow bar in the forward driving direction.

Use mechanical loading equipment (cranes, loaders, conveyors, etc.) to load the trailer.

Make sure that all wall and top section locks are engaged before loading the trailer.

Spread the load evenly across the entire load body surface. When transporting materials that exert focused (topical) pressure on the load body (e.g. large rocks), line the floor with thick planks first. This will reduce the surface load on the floor and protect it against damage.

When transporting large volume materials, install the top sections of the load body walls. If the transported materials protrude from the trailer, follow the applicable traffic code regulations for proper marking of protruding loads.

Do not exceed the permissible payload and permissible axle loads, otherwise the trailer can be damaged and the traffic safety compromised. The transported load must be secured against shifting,

5.2. UNLOADING THE BODY

The load body can be unloaded manually, with mechanical

equipment or by tipping the box with the hydraulic mechanism.

Unload by tipping the load body by following these actions in the

order presented below:

• Align the tractor with the trailer's axis;

• Engage the tractor's parking brake;

• Remove the safety pin that couples the load body with the chassis

frame (fig. 6): a) unloading to the back – the pins (Fig. 6) must remain in the rear

bells of the load body;

b) unloading to the left – the pins must be installed in the left hand

bells; c) unloading to the right side – the pins must be installed in the right hand bells;

• Make sure that the pins on the side to which the trailer is to be unloaded have been properly installed;

• Open the body wall locks on the unloading side;

• Tip the load body by operating the hydraulic actuator;

• After the load has been discharged, lower the body and secure the

wall(s) with the locks.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS MANUAL - T739 FARMING TRUCK TRAILER

19

TRAILER OPERATION

• If it is necessary to unload the trailer on a slope, it is allowed to tip the trailer body upwards (with the tractor and the trailer parked in the uphill direction).

• No person is allowed to remain near the tipped trailer body and within the range of discharged load.

• Do not decouple the trailer from the tractor when

ATTENTION!

Open the top lock of the load body by moving the handle up and depressing the button under the handle at the same time. Open the bottom locks of wall segments by operating the central lock handle:

TRAILER OPERATION

5.3. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM

5.3.1. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM – SERVICING OF THE LOAD BODY HYDRAULIC TIPPING SYSTEM

The hydraulic oil of the trailer and the external hydraulic system oil (tractor) must always be of the same grade and type. DO NOT use different oil grades.

The trailer's hydraulic system must be absolutely leak tight. Check the leak tightness of the hydraulic system by tipping the load body backwards and overloading the hydraulic system for a few seconds. If there are oil leaks at the hydraulic connections, retighten them. If the problem persists, replace the hose or the connection fittings. If the hydraulic leak does not occur on any connector, replace the leaking hydraulic system component. Any and all mechanical damage to a component requires its replacement with the new one.

The condition of the hydraulic system must be monitored continuously throughout the operating life of the trailer. When coupling the hydraulic systems of the tractor and of the trailer together, keep the couplings as clean as required.

5.3.2. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM – ADJUSTMENT OF THE LOAD BODY HYDRAULIC TIPPING MECHANISM

The hydraulic system features a safety cable (which acts as a tipping angle limiter of the load body) and the cut-off valve that isolates

the oil flow to the hydraulic actuator when the body is tipped. No unauthorised persons are allowed to make adjustments or remove the limiters due to safety concerns. The cut-off valve is intended to isolate the oil feed from the actuator before the maximum (permissible) tipping angle of the body is reached. Changing the length or breaking the cable between the load body frame and the cut-off valve may result in damage of the trailer or a risk of turning over the trailer.

Do not remove or disconnect the safety cable / load body tipping limiter. Unauthorised persons must not adjust the cut-off valve.

PERIODIC INSPECTION

6. PERIODIC INSPECTION

6.1. LUBRICATION

Proper lubrication is one of the most critical factors that condition good performance of individual assemblies and mechanisms of the tr ail er.

Compliance to the manufacturer's guidelines for lubrication significantly reduces the risk of damage or premature wearing of individual parts.

Follow these rules when lubricating:

• Clean the grease nipple before feeding the grease;

• Feed the lubricant until fresh lubricant comes out of the gaps

(through which the used lubricant is pushed out first);

• When finishing the lubrication, leave some lubricant on the nipple

head;

• Use oil to lubricate threaded joints, lever joints and similar parts of

the trailer;

• Inspect the lubrication of wheel hub bearings each year; add or

replace the bearing lubricant;

• when replacing the lubricant, remove the hub, remove the used

lubricant, inspect the bearings' condition (replace with new ones if necessary); after applying the fresh lubricant, adjust the bearing play.

Use only quality bearing lubricants. Never drive without the hub cap; other wise penetration by dirt
