1.6 Uncaging Air Brakes (for trailers with an Air Brake system)
Air brakes are designed with a safety feature called a spring brake; if no air pressure is present in the
system, springs will apply force to the brake system linkages and apply the brakes. To allow the trailer to be
moved during shipping, a release tool assembly is installed in each of the spring brake cans to prevent the
brakes from being applied. These release tools
must be removed
before the trailer can be put into service.
INOPERATIVE BRAKE SYSTEM!
The spring brake release tool assemblies must be removed from the spring brake cans before the trailer is put
into service.
The brake system will not function with the release tools installed
, and the trailer will roll freely
until they are removed. To remove the release tool assemblies, use the following procedure in Table 2:
