Spoke to Joe he told me his partner in the Timberliner business who sold me the first trailer has sadly passed on, I said for God's sake keep taking the pill's as I didn't want him going the same way just yet, got a sense of humour certainly knows how to laugh , great guy, hopefully looking out a manual I'm looking forward to a few more stories if he was round the corner I would certainly be paying a visit. Might yet have to come up to search for the manual!!

Has anyone got a manual for a timberliner 8000 drive trailer or maybe someone fully gets how it operates, pretty well got everything functioning but can't quite work out how to plumb it in to the Valmet tractor! Three hydraulic lines operating drive train and brakes. From front of train to back: 1) Operates a ram that disengages two flanges and in doing that pushes the rod in a master cylinder operating an inline disc brake. 2) Operates the Brake/Clutch shoes on the large inline drum engaging drive I think! 3) Operates outboard drum brakes on the top of the wheel boggies but also a drum brake? that is directly infront of the diff at the end of the drive train. Maybe some sort of diff lock? I used to run one of these in the 1990's but memory is foggy! Any help welcome!! Mike
