INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Type H FRB Fluid Reservoir/Bleeder Assembly
 
The fluid reservoir/bleeder (FRB) assembly is needed in all industrial brake systems:
  1. To supplement the control cylinder reservoir on manually operated brake systems or the pressure cluster reservoir on air power hydraulic-operated brake systems.

    2.  
  2. To compensate for the normal height of the brakes above the control cylinder, keeping the brake line full of fluid at all times.

    3.  
  3. To serve as a valuable tool when bleeding the system during installation and maintenance.
FRB INSTALLATION

  1. Locate the FRB assembly at the highest point in the hydraulic system.

    2.  
  2. Only gravity forces fluid flow in the static return line from the bleeder reservoir to the master cylinder reservoir. Minimize restrictions in this line. Avoid long horizontal static return lines as per Figure 1.
  1. Locate the FRB assembly so that the static return line is as short and direct as possible. Manual brake systems should be arranged per Fig.2. Air power brake system should be arranged per Fig.3.

    2.  
  2. If the FRB assembly is electrically operated (J-3080 or J-3083), connect to bleeder pushbutton (BPB) in cab if manual hydraulic system or on panel if air power hydraulic system. Refer to applicable wiring diagram.
