Find hereNOVEMBER/DECEMBER 1993Deep in the marrow of West Oakland, in the industrial desert of the abandoned Phoenix Iron Works, under the derelict scaffolding of warship craze and the flapping of pigeons and the falling of feathers, in inches of soot and clouds of green gasses, lit by shafts of light piercing dusted air from a thousand windows vibrant red from the setting west, among miles of steel and acres of concrete, the table seems simple, small, insignificant. In this gloom of forgotten machinery, under wires which haven''t breathed electricity in years, there''s the sense--not so much that beauty will one day be guest to the table--but that the table is already guest to great beauty. The new 60 Series combines are powered by 6.8L, 8.1L or 12.5L John Deere PowerTech engines. The engines are designed with a power bulge feature to get extra torque and power when harvesting through tough conditions.They also feature an unloading power boost to gain an additional surge in power when unloading on-the-go to maintain ground speed and threshing capacity. Operators will get extra power and productivity when needed because of the power bulge and power boost features designed into the PowerTech engines. Test results on one inspection of 1,520 tractor and trailer combinations revealed that 46% of these vehicles had brakes that were out of adjustment. The remaining OOS vehicles were cited for such defects as audible air leaks, cracked brake drums, loose brake components, brake linings not firmly attached to the shoe, brake lining less than one-quarter-inch thick, brake lining saturated with oil or grease, and damaged or frayed air line hoses or tubing.Interpreting brake termsBefore attempting to specify an air brake system for articulated vehicles, let''s define certain brake terminology so that the vehicle manufacturer, equipment dealer and truck fleet manager are all on the same frequency of communication:Balanced Braking. This would occur on a tractor trailer combination when the brakes'' forces are divided evenly between the tractor and the trailer, or trailers. The trailer brakes would apply just before the tractor brakes and the tractor brakes would release just before the trailer brakes. In other words, every brake in the vehicle combination would be contributing to its designed share of the total braking effort. Also, balanced braking prevents trailer sluing (when the trailer wheels lock and go into an uncontrollable skid), as well as tractor jackknifing. ©2003 www.band-saws-for-sale.com.
