3.  Do not park a vehicle outside after thawing its air system indoors.  Condensation will
form in the system and freeze again.  Place the vehicle in operation when it is
removed to the outdoors.
Supporting Air and Electrical Lines
Make certain tie wraps are replaced and support brackets are re-assembled if removed
during routine maintenance.  These items prevent the weight of ice and snow
accumulations from breaking or disconnecting air lines and wires.
Automatic Drain Valves (System without Air Dryer)
As we stated last year, routine reservoir draining is the most basic step (although not
completely effective) in reducing the possibility of freeze-up.  While automatic drain
valves relieve the operator of draining reservoirs on a daily basis, these valves MUST be
routinely checked for proper operation.  Don’t overlook them until they fail and a road call
is required.
