If your vehicle is equipped with an auxiliary brake, follow the instructions provided in the auxiliary brake owner's manual. Failure to follow the instructions during wet or slippery conditions could reduce vehicle control and result in personal injury or death.
These devices should not be used as a primary or service brake.
Certain auxiliary engine braking devices are approved for use on these engines. Refer to the Truck Engine Application and Installation Guide or see your Caterpillar dealer for more information.BrakeSaver Operation (3406E Only)
The BrakeSaver should NOT be used as a primary or service brake. The BrakeSaver is not an emergency or quick stop brake. Use the service brakes for quick stops.
Do not exceed 116°C (240°F) maximum engine oil temperature at any time.Do not exceed 2300 rpm in any situation. Operation of the engine over 2300 rpm will cause the Electronic system to activate the CHECK ENGINE lamp, indicating engine overspeed. Overspeeding can result in serious damage to your engine.
The BrakeSaver provides auxiliary braking to slow the truck and to control speed on long downhill grades. Controlling the slowing or downhill speed of a vehicle by using the BrakeSaver results in reduced wear on brake linings and brake drums. It helps save the service brakes for emergency stopping requirements.No special skills are required to operate or maintain a vehicle equipped with a BrakeSaver. However, it requires the operator to observe the engine speed and BrakeSaver oil temperature.For maximum BrakeSaver effectiveness, select the proper gearing to keep the engine rpm as close to 2300 rpm as possible without exceeding 2300 rpm. BrakeSaver effort declines as rpm goes down.Manual operation allows the operator to match driving conditions to any load or hill. Do not control the vehicle speed with the accelerator while the manual control is ON. Allow a two second delay for full engagement and full disengagement.Manual Control
Manual control lever.The hand operated manual control lever is usually mounted on the steering column. To increase or decrease the BrakeSaver, move the manual control lever. Allow a two second delay for full engagement and full disengagement. Actuating the manual Brakesaver control will deactivate the cruise control or the PTO control.Automatic Control
The mode selector switch must be in the AUTOMATIC MANUAL position and the Electronic system Cruise Control ON/OFF switch must be in the OFF position for automatic control. In this mode, the BrakeSaver will automatically be engaged when the clutch pedal is applied and the accelerator pedal is released.The BrakeSaver will automatically shut off when the clutch pedal is released or when the accelerator pedal is pressed. It will engage when the clutch pedal is applied again and the accelerator pedal is released.Gauges
CONTROL AIR PRESSURE should not exceed 390 kPa (55 psi). If the indicator shows little or no pressure, the BrakeSaver may not provide any braking effort. Control the vehicle stopping with proper downshifting and service brakes until repairs are made. Stop the vehicle or operate at a reduced speed.The BrakeSaver oil temperature gauge indicator should register in the NORMAL (GREEN) range,
