DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION


Tractors may be fitted with a hydraulically operated
trailer brake valve which operates the trailer brakes
whenever the brake system is activated by
depressing the footbrake.
Installation of the trailer brake valves varies
according to model however the principal of
operation remains the same.

For tractors marketed in Italy a modified trailer brake
valve is fitted which ensures the trailer brakes are
also applied when:–
The engine is stopped
The parking brake is applied
Output from the hydraulic pump is very low.

ITALIAN TRAILER BRAKES


The unique braking mechanism on Italian trailers
automatically applies the trailer brakes whenever the
tractor engine is stopped, output from the hydraulic
pump is very low or the tractor is disconnected from
the trailer.
NOTE: The Italian trailer braking system will only
function on trailers specifically designed to the Italian
trailer braking specification. Do NOT attach trailers
which are not to the Italian specification to tractors
installed with the Italian trailer brake option. Failure
to observe this requirement may result in continual
partial engagement of the brakes on the trailer and
consequential overheating.
The internal components of the Italian trailer brake
valve are the same as the standard trailer braking
system, however an additional manifold (3) is
attached to the ‘P’ and ‘B’ ports. This manifold
contains two solenoids (1) and (2) and internal
galleries which direct oil to and from the trailer brake
circuit in accordance with the trailer braking
requirements of this system.
An oil discharge valve located in the the return port
‘R’ of the valve creates a back pressure of 10 to 12
bar in the system whenever the engine is running but
the foot brakes are not applied.
The full description and operation of the system is
described as follows. 11

When the tractor brake pedal is depressed the
control of oil flow through the trailer brake valve (7)
is the same as described for tractors with the
standard trailer brake system, refer to Page 8 and the
outlet pressure through port ‘B’ will be 12–150bar
(174–2180lbf/in2) depending on the pressure applied
to the brake pedal.
The delivery solenoid (5) is open and the discharge
solenoid (4) is closed. Oil exiting port ‘B’ flows
through the ‘Open’ delivery solenoid valve (5) to the
trailer brake coupler (12).
When a trailer is connected to the coupler the
pressure passing through the coupling to the trailer
braking mechanism overcomes the spring force (13
and 14) and moves the actuating pin forward to apply
the brakes on the trailer.

the current energises the relay (3). The relay
closes and current reaches and energises the
solenoid valves (4) and (5). The delivery solenoid
(5) is now closed and discharge solenoid (4) is
open. In this condition the oil in the trailer brake
line discharges to reservoir through solenoid (4).
Their is now insufficient pressure to overcome the
spring (13) and therefore the actuating pin moves
forward to apply the brakes. Low pressure in the
trailer brake line causes the switch (15) to close
and illuminate the warning lamp (16).

When the parking brake is applied the switch (2) is
closed. With the switch closed the current energises
the relay (3). The relay closes and current reaches
and energises the solenoid valves (4) and (5).
The delivery solenoid valve (5) is now closed and
discharge solenoid valve (4) is open. The 11 bar
pressure oil at port ‘B’ is blocked by delivery solenoid
valve (5) and the pressure in the trailer brake coupler
line is discharged to reservoir through discharge
solenoid valve (4).
Because there is insufficient pressure to overcome
spring (13) the actuating pin is pushed forward to
apply the brakes. The low pressure in the trailer
brake coupler line causes the trailer brake warning
lamp switch (15) to close and the in cab warning lamp
will illuminate.
NOTE: After applying the parking brake, wait
approximately 10 seconds before stopping the
engine. This will allow complete discharge of the oil
pressure in the trailer brake line to obtain full
application of the trailer brakes.
