Correct use of tractor brakes

First, predictive braking

Predictive braking is a plan in which the driver, in the process of driving a vehicle, changes the traffic conditions of the discovered terrain, pedestrians, and vehicles, or anticipates a complex situation that may arise, and prepares in advance for thought and technology. Decelerated parking measures taken purposefully. Predictive braking can not only ensure vehicle safety, but also can save fuel and reduce consumption. It is the most common effective method in driving.

The predictive brake operation method is: discover the situation to relax the accelerator pedal in advance, reduce the speed of the vehicle using the drag function of the engine, and gently depress the brake pedal intermittently and gently according to the situation, so as to further reduce or stop the vehicle speed.

Second, emergency braking

Emergency braking is a situation in which a driver encounters a sudden appearance while the vehicle is moving, and emergency measures taken to avoid traffic accidents. This kind of braking has great damage to various parts of the vehicle, so emergency braking can be used only when it is necessary.

Emergency brake operation method is: to master the steering wheel, the two eyes watching the front, quickly relax the accelerator pedal, and immediately depress the brake pedal, so that the vehicle immediately stops.

Third, the engine brake

The engine brake is the drag of the engine after the driver relaxes the accelerator pedal. The lower the gear, the greater the drag resistance and the stronger the brake. Engine braking can reduce the burden on wheel brakes and reduce the number of uses. Therefore, engine brakes are often used on long slopes and on ice, snow, and muddy roads. However, it is forbidden to step on the clutch pedal or to coast and avoid sudden braking to prevent accidents.
