SERVICE SYSTEM FAILURE (Fig. 5)
If air pressure is reduced in the service system, pressure
in the trailer supply line (and likewise in the tractor) will be
reduced, until the pressure protection piston and spring
moves the piston and closes the inlet valve. With the
pressure protection inlet valve closed approximately 50-60
psi will be retained in the trailer supply line and in the
tractor service reservoir. With 50-60 psi pressure held in
the trailer supply line and against the control piston in the
SR-2

To brake the trailer after the service system failure has

SERVICE AND LEAKAGE TESTS
Check the tractor dash gauge against a test gauge known
to be accurate prior to performing these tests. Connect

control valve in the brakes released position.
and trailer to full system pressure by placing the trailer
supply valve in the charge position and the parking
control valve in the brakes released position.
NOTE: As system pressure reaches approximately 55
psi, the service reservoir and the spring brake reservoir
should begin to charge. When full system pressure has
been obtained and the spring brakes are released, it is
acceptable to have a slightly lower pressure reading in
the service and spring brake reservoir than is registered
on the dash gauge. Apply a soap solution to the cap
nut, exhaust port and vent to detect possible leakage.
A 1” bubble in 5 seconds is permissible.
