Getting the brakes right on a modular axle is the single job the 76 pages of this Manitou Carraro 26.27M, 26.32M repair manual PDF (OEM ID CA270292) are written to handle. Operating procedures take up the largest share of the book. They cover the negative parking brake through its disable and enable sequence, the radial screws system, service brake circuit bleeding and a testing routine that checks axle, pinion, wheels and gear after assembly. Brake type identification, wear checks, vents and an adhesives and tightening torques table come first, so you know which brake you have before a bolt comes out. Apply 13 bar to free the parking brake, expect 20 to 25 bar for passive release, and bring the nuts up to 40 Nm with the plugs at 30 Nm. A negative brake that won't release ruins an afternoon. Bookmarked and text-searchable, the PDF is yours to keep for every brake job this axle sees.
