Activating/deactivating axle load
transfer for trailing axle (3-axle
buses only)
M54.00-1947-71
The axle load transfer of the trailing
axle is activated by pressing pushbut-
ton (1) in the driver's area.
Note:
The axle load transfer (pull-away aid) is
primarily used in the winter for pulling
away or for reversing in wintry road con-
ditions. Tyre contact pressure at the driv-
en axle is increased because the load on
the trailing axle is reduced.
Note:
When the function is activated, the supply
of compressed air to the suspension air
bags on the trailing axle is interrupted.
The suspension air bags are then vented
of air by an overflow valve.
Note:
The pull-away aid cannot be activated
unless the ignition starter switch is ON
and the bus is travelling at a speed of
below 12 mph (20 km/h).
Note:
Whenever ASR intervenes, the pull-away
aid is activated automatically.
When the pull-away aid is active, the
LED lights up in the pushbutton and
the “Pull-away aid active” symbol
appears on the screen.
To deactivate the pull-away aid, press
rocker switch (1) again.
Note:
The pull-away aid will be cancelled if the
air pressure in the suspension air bags
of the driven axle exceeds 7 bar while
the bus is in motion and the axle load
relief function is active. The load on the
suspension air bags is restored to normal
balance.
Note:
Similarly, the pull-away aid is deactivated
as soon as the bus exceeds 18 mph (30
km/h).
