Do not attempt to install, remove, disassemble or
assemble a component until you have read and
thoroughly understand the recommended
procedures.  Use only the proper tools and observe
all precautions pertaining to use of those tools.
4.
If the work is being performed on the vehicle’s air
brake system, or any auxiliary pressurized air

all reservoirs before beginning ANY work on the
vehicle.  If the vehicle is equipped with an AD-IS

tubing, hose, fittings, etc. must be of equivalent
size, type and strength as original equipment and
