4.5. Support foot
The T735 trailer is equipped with a mechanically operated support foot. It is designed to
support the tow bar when the trailer is decoupled from the tractor. The foot is installed at the
tow bar beam fork.
CAUTION! Do not rest the trailer on the support foot when it is loaded.
4.6. Braking system
The T735 trailer is equipped with the following braking systems:
• Service brake: pneumatically actuated two-line system, operates the axle wheels; controlled
from the driver's seat by pressing the tractor's brake lever;
• Parking brake: hand mechanical control via a crank lever mechanism and a screw gear,
located on the right side of the trailer and operating the axle wheels.
• The service brake design ensures automatic braking of all trailer land wheels if the pneumatic
system is accidentally decoupled between the trailer and the tractor. On customer's request,
the trailer can be alternately equipped with a single-line braking system (i.e. for adaptation
to tractors which support such system conguration).
Figure 4 shows the pneumatic braking system diagram:
a) single-line system; b) two-line system.

5. STORAGE, SALE AND SHIPPING TO USER
STORAGE
• Protect the trailer from direct exposure to sunlight and rain. Park it with its land wheels and
with the supports extended and locked (if the tyres can be exposed to sunlight, reduce their
pressure).
• If the trailer is stored outdoors, periodically check for rainwater accumulation in the trailer.
Note all damage to the paint coat. Clean and degrease spots of damaged paint. Next, repaint
with the same colour and coat thickness.
• Long-term storage is allowed in sheltered rooms only.
SALE
• The buyer picks the trailer from the manufacturer or the sales representative on their own,
or arranges for the shipping with the manufacturer.
• The trailer is sold as fully assembled and ready for operation, complete with the basic
equipment listed in section 1.2 of this manual. All optional accessories or their parts are
available at extra charge.
• The sales representative personnel is required to introduce the buyer to the design and
operation of the trailer, along with safety requirements and warranty conditions.
• The buyer shall verify the following:
- the trailer is complete, undamaged and with all basic equipment;
- the nameplate located on the load body front frame crosspiece and the surface under it
has the serial number stamped that matches the data in the warranty card;
- the warranty card has been properly lled out with the identication data on the
nameplate.
SHIPPING TO USER
The trailer shall be transported from the sales representative on wheels as coupled with a
tractor or on a low-bed trailer. Before loading on a low-bed trailer, connect the farming trailer
with the transport hitch and the braking lines of the tractor. Drive the farming trailer to the low-
bed trailer with the extended ramps. Next, secure the farm trailer with wheel chocks. Afterwards,
disconnect the braking system and decouple from the tractor. Secure the farming trailer with
special transport straps. Before unloading the trailer, rst extend the low-bed trailer ramps
and release the transport straps used to secure the farming trailer from falling down in transit.
Approach with a tractor and connect the trailer braking system. Next, remove the wheel chocks
from the trailer. When all of the above has been completed, drive the trailer from the low-bed.

6. OPERATION INFORMATION
6.1. Commissioning the trailer
IMPORTANT! *Use only tractors that are t for service (with the transport hitch, the pneumatic
and hydraulic systems, and the signalling/warning system working)
Do the following before commissioning the trailer:
- Understand the names and locations of individual assemblies/components of the trailer
- check the tyre pressure
- couple the trailer with the tractor:
* set the tow bar hitch-ring of the trailer at the trailer transport hitch height;
* couple the hitch-ring with the trailer hitch;
* secure the hitch pin from falling out;
* turn off the tractor engine;
* engage the tractor parking brake;
* release the trailer parking brake;
* connect the appropriate sockets and plugs of the following systems: pneumatic, hydraulic
and electrical;
- do the functional checks of the electrical, pneumatic and hydraulic systems of the tractor
and of the trailer, and check leak tightness of the hydraulic and pneumatic systems on both
vehicles;
- check all equipment, their connections and safety from accidental release or breaking.
Do all these actions each time you start the trailer.
INFORMATION! Couple the trailer with the tractor transport hitch only that is rated for 11.5 kN
of minimum load. No bystanders shall remain between the trailer and the tractor
when the two are being coupled.
INFORMATION! Two persons and extreme caution are required to install and remove the top
sections.
6.2. Loading the body
Load the body only when the trailer is coupled with the tractor, parked on level ground and
with the tow bar in the forward driving direction.
Use mechanical loading equipment (cranes, loaders, conveyors, etc.) to load the trailer.
Make sure that all wall and top section locks are engaged before loading the trailer.
Spread the load evenly across the entire load body surface. If materials are to be transported
that exert focused (topical) pressure on the load body (e.g. large rocks), line the oor with thick
planks rst. This will reduce the surface load of the oor and protect it from damage.
If bulk loads are to be transported, install the top sections of the load body walls. If the
transported materials protrude beyond the trailer outline, follow the applicable trafc code
regulations to properly mark the protruding load.
INFORMATION! • Do not exceed the permissible payload and permissible axle loads, otherwise
the trailer can be damaged and the trafc safety compromised.
• The transported load must be secured against shifting, generating excessive
noise and falling down on the road.
