Model 447, 448 

MODIFICATION NOTES

30.10.2023 Method modified Operation step 6  
DANGER Risk of death  caused by limbs being caught or crushed by rotating parts when performing tests on the brake test stand Never leave the vehicle unattended on the rollers except in an emergency. Ensure that no one is under the vehicle or near rotating parts during testing. In case of emergency, use the EMERGENCY OFF switch to shut down test stand. AS42.00-Z-0001-01A 
Notice  General information on vehicles with high-voltage on-board electrical system and/or lithium-ion battery and/or gaseous-fuel drive system as well as personal protective equipment Model 447 with engine 780 AH00.00-Z-0300-01A

  General brake test (Only applies for countries without a specified brake test on the roller brake test stand)     
1 Check braking characteristics of service brake and parking brake when driving. NOTES It must be ensured that the brake test when driving is performed as per the country-specific legislation and regulations.
Otherwise, people may be injured or there may be damage to material and the environment.

  Brake test on roller brake test stand     
2 Move vehicle with front axle onto roller brake test stand.    
REFER TO SPECIAL TOOLS 000 588 32 21 00 Roller brake test stand   WS42.00-P-0116B
REFER TO SPECIAL TOOLS 000 588 06 21 00 Roller brake test stand IMPORTANT The transmission must be in the idle position during the test. WS42.00-Z-0013KOB
3 Measure deceleration values of service brake. NOTES The permissible deviation from the larger value may not exceed 25%. A braking effect must be discernible by the time the brake pedal has been depressed by a quarter of its overall travel distance.
Malfunction or damage can occur otherwise.
IMPORTANT Perform test with engine running or with electric vacuum pump running to ensure that maximum vacuum is present
Press brake pedal uniformly. The maximum values prior to the wheels locking up are to be documented.
If any deviations are present.

determine cause and correct.
IMPORTANT After obtaining special order.
 
4 Move rear axle of vehicle into roller brake test stand.

REFER TO SPECIAL TOOLS 000 588 06 21 00 Roller brake test stand   WS42.00-Z-0013KOB
    IMPORTANT The transmission must be in the idle position during the test.  
5 Measure deceleration values of service brake. NOTES The permissible deviation from the larger value may not exceed 25%. A braking effect must be discernible by the time the brake pedal has been depressed by a quarter of its overall travel distance.
Malfunction or damage can occur otherwise.
IMPORTANT Perform test with engine running or with electric vacuum pump running to ensure that maximum vacuum is present
Press brake pedal uniformly. The maximum values prior to the wheels locking up are to be documented.
If any deviations are present.

determine cause and correct.
IMPORTANT After obtaining special order.
 
6.1 Measure deceleration values for mechanical parking brake. Model 447, 448
except code B25 (Electric parking brake)
NOTES The permissible deviation from each larger value may not exceed 50%. When operating the parking brake, a braking effect must be discernible after 3 to 4 notches.
Malfunction or damage can occur otherwise.
IMPORTANT Operate parking brake uniformly. The maximum values prior to the wheels locking up are to be documented.
If any deviations are present.

determine cause and correct.
IMPORTANT After obtaining special order.
 
6.2 Measure deceleration values of electric parking brake. Model 447, 448
with code B25 (Electric parking brake)
NOTES Before operating the electric parking brake, the rear axle wheels must be driven for at least 10 s by the roller brake test stand so that the brake shoes can be applied slowly.
Otherwise damage may occur.
IMPORTANT To do so, press and hold the switch of the electric parking brake.
The maximum values prior to the wheels locking up are to be documented.
 
7 Drive the vehicle off the roller brake test stand.    
8 Enter deceleration values of the service brake and parking brake in the maintenance sheet.
