Hello HEF, have some head scratching queries about trying to modify a morooka Park brake system.
Already undergone some major modifications to the machine involving twin pumps capable of a combined output of 260ltr/min at 2000rpm.
Now getting rather stumped trying to change the park brake to having an electric Activation or some sort of remote valve.
The machine is modified to be driven externally as well as from in the cab. And trying to ensure safety by having the park brake work on a deadman style system.
The drive control levers are spring return and work well but really needs to be onto a deadman.
Currently have a system working of a shutoff valve installed into the system on the rear of machine that allows the brake pressure to be released when open, and when closed have installed a valve to essentially re-energise the charge pump side of the brakes working off a switch. This works with the factory park brake switch in the off position.
Any help or pointers in this would be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks, Gregor.
