Carry on the test on dry cement road which slant angle is about 8 degree and the length of the slope is about 20 meters. The following tests are used to determine whether the service brake functions are normal or not, not to measure the maximum braking force. 1. Start the engine, and raise the bucket to the transport position (40 centimeters above the ground). 2. Drive the machine to the center of the slope, tramp the service braking pedal to stop the machine (do not loosen the pedal at this time). 3. Set the gearshift to the stop short and close up the parking brake. 4. Loosen the service braking pedal (shall not turn off the engine), observe whether the machine moves down or not. At this point in time, if the machine doesn’t move in five minutes, the parking brake is normal. Warning If the machine moves, immediately tramp the service braking pedal to stop the machine and quickly drive it off the slope. Caution If the machine still moves when testing the parking brake, please connect with related service station and allow serviceman to check the machine. If necessary, the parking brake shall be repaired or adjusted before re-use the machine. Cooling system Add coolant additive. Caution Do not add additive randomly before reading and understanding the content of the chapter “Cooling System Specification”. The maintenance door of the radiator cap is located on the top of the aft closure of the machine. |
