ALVES
The motorcoach is equipped with two air system
emergency fill valves to supplement the air
system when air pressure is low and the engine
cannot be operated. One valve is located inside
the front service compartment. The other valve
is located inside the engine compartment near
the R.H. access door hinge.
FILL VALVE IN FRONT SERVICE COMPARTMENT
FILL VALVE IN ENGINE COMPARTMENT
Both air system emergency fill valves are fitted
with standard tire valve stems. The air systems
can be filled using any standard external air
supply line. The fill valve located in the engine
compartment supplies air for all systems
(brakes, suspension and accessories). The fill
valve located in the service compartment
supplies air for accessories only.
Caution :
Air filled through the two
emergency fill valves will pass through the
standard air filtering system. Do not fill air at
any other location. Do not exceed 120 psi (827
kPa).
