DIESEL EXHAUST BRAKE (ENGINE BRAKING)
The purpose of the exhaust brake (engine braking) fea-
ture is to supply negative (braking) torque from the
engine. Typically, the engine braking is used for, but not
limited to, vehicle towing applications where vehicle
braking can be achieved by the internal engine power,
thereby sparing the mechanical brakes of the vehicle.
Benefits of the exhaust brake are:
•
vehicle driving control
•
reduced brake fade
•
longer brake life
•
faster cab warm-up
The exhaust brake feature will only function when the
driver toggles it on by pushing the exhaust brake button
until the
