4.  Connect the tractor service and emergency “glad 

hands” (hose couplings) to hose couplings that have 
been plugged, or alternatively, to a trailer. Build the trac-
tor system air pressure to governor cut-out and make 4 
to 5 full brake applications. Check the air fi ttings at the 
BP-R1

 valve for leakage. Tighten as needed.

5.  With the trailer supply valve (dash control w/red oc-

tagonal button) and system park control (dash control 
with yellow diamond button) activated for tractor/trailer 
operation, apply, 

hold

, then release the brakes several 

times varying the application pressures while watch-
ing the reaction of the gauges installed on the BP-R1

 

valve. Check that a prompt application occurs and that 
it can be held then promptly released.
