AIR HOSE CONNECTOR

–Freightliner Chassis
For convenience, your coach is equipped with
a quick-connect air coupler to which you can
connect an air hose for inflating tires or sports
and camping equipment if needed.
NOTE: Air hose and inflation or blowing
attachments are not supplied and must be
obtained separately.
The quick-connect coupler is located behind
the hood panel at the front end of the vehicle.
Instructions for connection and disconnection are

When the air pressure is less than what you
need to inflate an item, you must start the coach
engine to run the system air compressor to fill the
accumulator tank.

moisture and condensation in your coach, you
should take immediate action to minimize their
effects.
