Brake Pressure Check
All installations with optional
DRAG-BRAKE
Test Equipment:
•
(1) 1,000 psi (6,895 kPa) Gauge
Connect pressure gauge to port:
• BR
Instructions
1. With the engine shut off, connect a 1000 psi pressure
gauge in line with the
BR
port on the control manifold.
2. Start dozer and set to high-free idle
3. Operate the winch in
LINE-IN
and
LINE-OUT
.
4. Check pressure. The pressure at this port should be
equal to the pilot supply pressure from the dozer. The
brake begins to release at 200 psi, and fully releases
at 300 psi. Low pressure will result in premature wear
of the friction discs and added heat generation.
If the brake pressure is not at least 300 psi, check for:
1. Improper pilot supply pressure.
2. Malfunctioning control lever; low
RI
and/or
RO
pressure.
3. Leaking pressure hoses or fi ttings.
4. Restriction in pressure hose or manifold port.
