The brake system is direct air actuated. There is a brake located at each rear wheel. Air compressor (4) sends
pressure air to air reservoir (8) through the one-way check valves (5) and (10). The air reservoir is divided
into two separate sections. Each section has a relief valve (7 or 9) and a drain plug (6).

Pressure air goes from dual brake control valve (12) to activate the brakes by independent circuits for the
right and left sides of the machine. Pressure air in the air reservoir provides air to actuate the brakes five
times after the engine (and compressor) stops. In case of a failure in a line or one of the circuits, one section
of the air reservoir will still have pressure air to engage the brakes on one drive tandem.

(3) Wheel spindle housing. (4) Sprocket. (5) Shims. (6) Brake hub. (7) Cover. (8) Stationary discs. (9) Air piston. (10) Revolving
discs. (11) Spring. (12) Air compartment. (13) Duo-Cone seal. (14) Wheel spindle.

The power from the differential is through the drive chain to the sprocket (4). The sprocket turns wheel
spindle (14), brake hub (6) and revolving discs (10) in wheel spindle housing (3). The drive wheels are
connected to the wheel spindle (14).

Four disc-type brakes, one in each wheel spindle housing (3), are used for the service brake system. The
cooling of the brakes is through the oil in the tandem housing (2). The service brakes are activated by air
pressure from the service brake control valve. There is a Duo-Cone seal (13) located between the wheel
spindle (14) and the wheel spindle housing (3). It seals oil in and keeps dirt, water and other contaminants
out.

The stationary brake discs (8) are splined into the wheel spindle housing (3), and the revolving discs (10) are
splined onto the brake hub (6). The brake hub (6) is splined onto the wheel spindle (14).

Instrument Panel
(15, 16) Air pressure gauges.

Air from both sections of the air reservoir goes to the air pressure gauges (15) and (16) on the instrument
panel and to the dual brake control valve (17) for the service brakes.

Control Valve For Service Brakes (Located Under The Cab Floor)
(17) Dual brake control valve.

Pushing the brake pedal on the dual brake control valve (17) sends part of the pressure air from the air
reservoir to the brakes. The position of the brake pedal controls the amount of air pressure.

Pressure air goes through port (1) into air compartment (12). Air then moves piston (9) against stationary
discs (8) and revolving discs (10). The piston pushes the discs against cover (7). As the air pressure becomes
higher, the force of piston (9) pushing against the discs causes friction between the discs. As the friction
becomes greater, revolving discs (10), brake hub (6) and wheel spindle (14) will start to slow down, since
stationary discs (8) and wheel spindle housing (3) cannot turn. This is the brake ON position, but the brakes
are not fully engaged.

If the operator pushes the foot brake pedal down completely, the air pressure in air compartment (12) will
increase. The friction between discs will then become great enough to stop revolving discs (10), brake hub
(6) and wheel spindle (14). Pressure air is held in the brakes to keep the brakes in the brake ON position.

12H Motor Grader 4ER00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3306 Engine(SEBP2... Page 5 of 12

When the operator releases the foot brake pedal, the pressure air in air compartment (12) is released through
port (1) to the dual brake control valve (17). Spring (11) then pushes piston (9) back to the brake OFF
position. Revolving discs (10) are again free to turn between stationary discs (8).

There is a plug at the bottom of the wheel spindle housing (3) that can be removed to check the wear of the
friction discs. Friction disc wear can be checked by observing the piston travel with a 5P-7389 Transparent
Plug Assembly.

If a new piston is installed, a new wear mark must be put on the piston with a 5P-8678 Punch Assembly.
Install the punch assembly in the bottom of the wheel assembly where the plug has been removed. You must
have a new brake pack installed before marking a new piston.

Parking Brake

(1) Parking brake group. (2) Air supply to parking brake. (3) Plug to drain moisture.

The parking brake group (1) is located on the output shaft of the transmission. The parking brake is air
released and spring engaged. The parking brake group includes a plug (3) to drain moisture that may
accumulate from the machine air system.

(4) Transmission control lever in PARKING BRAKE ENGAGED position.

Air from the dual brake control valve goes through the one-way check valve. When the transmission control
lever (4) is pushed down and moved back pressure air goes through the parking brake valve.

Air then goes through the junction block and into the parking brake group (1) at the air inlet (2) on the
transmission flange and disengages the parking brake.

(15) Transmission cover.

The parking brake is made up of a hub (8) that is connected to the transmission output shaft (10), and discs
(9) which are splined to the hub (8). Plates (5) are held stationary by dowels (7) that are inserted into the
transmission cover (15) and the brake housing (6). The brake housing is bolted to the transmission cover
(15). Piston (11) provides the required air chamber (14) needed to activate piston (12) and release the
parking brake on command from the transmission control lever (4) located in the cab area. Springs (13)
provide the clamping force across the brake pack to engage the parking brake when the air chamber (14) is
depressurized.

In the PARKING BRAKE ENGAGED position no air pressure is available to the air chamber (14). Springs
(13) push the piston (12) into contact with the plates (5) and discs (9). The piston (12) pushes the plates (5)
and discs (9) against the transmission cover (15). The springs (13) generate enough force to create sufficient
friction between the grounded plates (5) and discs (9) to stop the discs (9) from spinning. Since the discs (9)
are stopped from spinning and are splined to the hub (8) which is connected to the transmission output shaft

(10), the output shaft does not turn. When the transmission control lever (4) is in PARKING BRAKE
ENGAGED position or when the air chamber (14) is depressurized the machine cannot move.

When the machine is stopped and the transmission control lever (4) is pushed to the PARKING BRAKE
ENGAGED position, the transmission is held in the NEUTRAL position.

When the transmission control lever (4) is in neutral or any of the forward or reverse selections the parking
brake is OFF. With the transmission control lever (4) in any of these positions, air is allowed to pressurize
within the air chamber (14). Pressurized air then forces the piston (12) against the springs (13). The
clamping force across the brake pack is eliminated. Discs (9) are allowed to rotate freely with hub (8) and
output shaft (10).

NOTICE

Do not engage the parking brake while the machine is moving unless
the primary service brake fails. The use of the parking brake as a
service brake in regular operation will cause severe damage to the
brake system.

Electric Warning System

(1) Alert indicator panel. (2) Air pressure gauges (two).

(4) Brake control valve. (5) Air brake pressure switch. (6) Air brake pressure switch. (7) Stoplight pressure switch.

The warning system has three separate circuits. The main circuit has an action alarm and an alert indicator
(3) for low air pressure. Two air brake pressure switches (5) and (6), one on each section of the dual brake
control valve for the service brakes, are connected to the action alarm and the alert indicator. In case of a
failure in either half of the air system, one of the air brake pressure switches will close at approximately 530
kPa (77 psi). This opens the circuit to operate the action alarm and the alert indicator. The operator can then
safely stop the machine and look at the air pressure gauges (2) on the instrument panel to see which part of
the system has the failure.

NOTE: The action alarm is in the shift console to the right of the seat.

The last circuit is for the brake lights. The stoplight pressure switch (7) is in the line from the dual brake
control valve for the service brakes to one of the lines to the brakes. When the foot pedal is pushed, the
stoplight pressure switch closes. This completes a circuit to operate the brake lights.

Each warning circuit is connected to the battery through a separate fuse in the fuse box.

Air Compressor And Governor

Air Compressor And Governor


(1) Air compressor governor. (2) Air compressor.

The engine operates air compressor (2) through the timing gears. The air compressor governor (1) controls
the system air pressure.

The governor controls the air pressure in the system. When the engine is started, the compressor runs until
the pressure in the system is at the cutout setting of 965 ± 34 kPa (140 ± 5 psi). At this setting, pressure air
moves the governor piston to let air go through the governor to the unloading valves in the compressor.
Pressure air holds the unloading valves open to stop the flow of air from the compressor.

When the system air pressure is at the cut-in setting of 793 kPa (115 psi) minimum, the force of the
governor spring moves the governor piston to stop the flow of air to the unloading valves. The unloading
valves close and the compressor again sends pressure air to the system.

Control Valve For Service Brakes

12H Motor Grader 4ER00001-UP (MACHINE) POWERED BY 3306 Engine(SEB... Page 10 of 12

Control Valve For Service Brakes


(1) Plunger. (2) Screw. (3) Spring seat. (4) Rubber spring. (5) Piston. (6) Seat. (7) Exhaust passage. (8) Seat. (9) Inlet and exhaust
valve. (10) Delivery port. (11) Supply port. (12) Relay piston. (13) Spring. (14) Exhaust seat. (15) Exhaust passage. (16) Spring.
(17) Supply port. (18) Delivery port. (19) Seat. (20) Inlet and exhaust valve. (21) Exhaust port.

Right Brake Application


When the brake pedal is pushed, plunger (1) puts force on spring seat (3), rubber spring (4) and piston (5).
The seat (6) seats on inlet and exhaust valve (9) and closes exhaust passage (7). Inlet and exhaust valve (9)
is moved off seat (8) to let pressure air from supply port (11) go out delivery port (10) to the brakes for the
right side of the machine.

NOTE: Because of the small amount of pedal movement and air needed to move the relay piston (12), the
brakes for the left side of the machine are applied almost the same time, (almost simultaneous) as the brakes
for the right side of the machine.

Left Brake Application


When the inlet and exhaust valve (9) is moved off of its seat (8), exhaust seat (14) seats on inlet and exhaust
valve (20) and closes exhaust passage (15). Inlet and exhaust valve (20) is moved off seat (19) to let air from
supply port (17) go out delivery port (18) to the brakes for the left side of the machine.

Releasing The Brakes


When the brake pedal is released, mechanical force is removed from the spring seat (3), rubber spring (4)
and piston (5). Air pressure and spring force moves piston (5) which in turn moves relay piston (12) by way
of screw (2). Seat (6) is moved away from inlet and exhaust valve (9). Inlet and exhaust valve (9) moves
into contact with seat (8). Air pressure in the lines to the brakes for the right side of the machine goes
through the center of the valve and out the exhaust port (21). The brakes for the right side of the machine are
released. At the same time, exhaust seat (14) moves away from inlet and exhaust valve (20). The inlet and
exhaust valve moves into contact with seat (19). Passage (15) is closed off to stop air flow from supply port
(17) to delivery port (18). Air pressure in the lines to the brakes for the left side of the machine goes through
the center of the inlet and exhaust valve (20) and out the exhaust port (21). The brakes for the left side of the
machine are released.

Loss Of Brakes For Left Side


Should air pressure in the circuit for the brakes on the left side of the machine be lost, the circuit for the
brakes on the right side of the machine will still provide for brakes on the right side of the machine.

Loss Of Brakes For Right Side


Should air pressure in the circuit for the brakes on the right side of the machine be lost, the brakes for the
left side of the machine can still be applied. As the brake pedal is pushed, and there is no air pressure at
supply port (11) and delivery port (10) and there will be no brakes for the right side of the machine. Piston
(5) will mechanically move relay piston (12) to close inlet and exhaust valve (20) and let air pressure from
supply port (17) go out delivery port (18) to the brakes for the left side of the machine.

Brakes Balanced (Right Side)


When the air pressure at the delivery port (10) is the same as the mechanical force of the brake pedal, piston
(5) will move and the inlet and exhaust valve (9) will close and stop the flow of air from supply port (11).
The inlet and exhaust valve (20) will stay closed and will not let air pressure go out through exhaust port
(21).

Brakes Balanced (Left Side)


When the air pressure under relay piston (12) is near the air pressure on top of it, the relay piston (12) moves
to close the passage (15) and stops the flow of air from supply port (17) to delivery port (18). Exhaust port
(21) will stay closed as the air pressure for the brakes on the left side of the machine becomes the same as
the air pressure for the brakes on the right side of the machine.

When brake applications are made gradual, a balance position in the section for the brakes on the right side
of the machine is reached when the air pressure at the delivery port (10) is the same as the pressure of the
operator's foot on the pedal. A balance position is reached in the section for the brakes on the left side of the
machine when the air pressure under the relay piston (12) gets close (approaches) the air pressure above the
relay piston (12).

When the brake pedal is pushed all the way down, both the inlet and exhaust valves (9) and (20) are open
and full air pressure from the air reservoir goes to the brakes for both sides of the machine.

Control Valve For Parking Brake


The location of the control valve for the parking brake is in the shift console to the right of the seat. The
parking brake is a function of the transmission control lever.

Control Valve For Parking Brake


(1) Piston. (2) Stem. (3) Chamfer on stem. (4) Spring. (5) Supply port. (6) Exhaust port. (7) Delivery port.

The flow of air is through a one-way check valve to supply port (5). When the transmission control lever is
moved out of PARKING BRAKE ENGAGED position to NEUTRAL position, piston (1) is moved into the
control valve. The piston pushes stem (2) down to open a passage from supply port (5) to delivery port (7).
Chamfer (3) closes the opening from delivery port (7) to exhaust port (6). Pressure air then releases the
parking brake.

When the transmission control lever is pushed to the PARKING BRAKE ENGAGED position, spring (4)
moves stem (2) and piston (1) to stop the flow of air to delivery port (7). This opens the passage from the
delivery port (7) to exhaust port (6). The springs will engage the parking brakes.
