OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3-1 GENERAL
This section supplies information for operation
of the semitrailer. It describes and locates controls
and gives general operation procedures. Read all
instructions, warnings, cautions, and danger notes
before attempting to operate the semitrailer. Op-
erators must have proper training before operating
the semitrailer.
(See Figure 3-1 for location of
semitrailer parts.)
WARNING
DO NOT OPERATE THE SEMITRAILER
WITH ANY KNOWN FAULT THAT
MIGHT ENDANGER THE OCCUPANTS,
NEARBY WORKERS, OTHER TRAFFIC,
THE LOAD, OR THE EQUIPMENT.
WARNING
DO NOT OPERATE THE SEMITRAILER
UNTIL YOU HAVE READ THE OPERA-
TOR’S MANUAL AND COMPLETELY
UNDERSTAND THE PROPER USE AND
FUNCTION OF ALL CONTROLS. IM-
PROPER USE CAN CAUSE PERSONAL
INJURY, DAMAGE TO YOUR SEMI-
TRAILER AND CARGO, AND CAUSE
TIME-CONSUMING BREAKDOWNS.
3-1.1
Parking Brake
The parking brakes are automatically applied
by spring pressure with the air actuators of the
braking system when air pressure in the emer-
gency line drops below 50 psi. This may be done
within the truck using the trailer parking/emergency
valve or by disconnecting the emergency glad-
hands.
3-1.2
Air Brake System
The air brake system of the semitrailer is oper-
ated from the towing vehicle after coupling. The
towing vehicle’s air system must be coupled to the
semitrailer and charged to 90 psi minimum before
the brakes can adequately function.
3-1.3
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS)
The Anti-Lock Brake System of the semitrailer
is constant powered by the auxiliary (blue) circuit
of the seven way electrical connector, with backup
power from the stop lamp (red) circuit, and ground
through the white wire. It is necessary that the blue
circuit is hot when the tractor key switch is on. The
blue circuit on the trailer may not be used to power
any additional auxiliary devices while the semi-
trailer is moving forward. If a fault exists in the
ABS, normal braking will occur, but the wheels
may lock. Service the ABS as soon as possible.
CAUTION
THE AUXILIARY (BLUE) CIRCUIT IS
FOR POWERING THE SEMITRAILER
ABS. THIS CIRCUIT MUST BE HOT
WHEN THE TRACTOR KEY SWITCH IS
ON. NO OTHER ELECTRICAL DEVICES
MAY BE POWERED BY THIS CIRCUIT
WHILE THE SEMITRAILER IS MOVING
FORWARD.
CAUTION
IF A FAULT EXISTS IN THE SEMI-
TRAILER ABS, NORMAL BRAKING
WILL OCCUR, BUT WHEELS MAY
LOCK. SERVICE THE ABS AS SOON
AS POSSIBLE.
