11. Connect the body to the cover; tighten the cap screws 

evenly and torque to 75-95 inch pounds.

12. Install the adjusting ring lock washer, be sure to align the 

lock washer with the cover to prevent cross-threading. 

13. Install the head seal o-ring and head.  

14. Install the set screw in the head of remote-operated type 

valves. At this stage, before installing the handle and 
spiral pin of a handle-operated type valve, if facilities 
are available the rebuilt valve should be tested and 
adjusted. If the facilities are not available, the valve 
can be tested on the vehicle.

Perform “Operating and Leakage Tests” as outlined in 
“Service Checks” section.

Generally, the TC-2

™

 trailer control brake valve should 

deliver full reservoir pressure; however, there are a few 
exceptions in special applications.

1.  If the delivered pressure is below specifi ed fi nal delivery 

pressure, it can be adjusted by removing the head and 
the adjusting ring lock washer and rotating the adjusting 
ring clockwise to raise the delivery pressure.

2.  If the delivery pressure is above the specifi ed  fi nal 

delivery pressure, it can be lowered by rotating the 
adjusting ring counterclockwise.

A spanner wrench can be used to rotate the adjusting ring, 
but if such a wrench is not available, the adjusting ring 
can be turned with a small screwdriver inserted in one of 
the inner notches of the ring. Turning the adjusting ring 
one notch will raise the delivered pressure approximately 
5 psi.
