14. Release pedal, assure that each circuit's pres-
sure is zero.
· Record on data sheet.
15. To check pedal free play, refer to the procedure
"Additional Testing and Adjustment (With brake
pedal installed)" in this "Section J" of the service
manual.
NOTE: Free play is defined by the gap between the
setscrew (in the pedal structure) and the actuator
cap. There must be a gap to prevent brake drag.
16. Cycle brake lock several times to assure crisp
shift of solenoid valve and release of oil pres-
sure.
17. Apply brake lock and read brake pressures.
Front pressure should be zero and rear pres-
sure should be 1500 ± 100 psi (10343 ± 690
kPa).

18. Allow engine to run until low brake accumulator
pressure stabilizes at or above 3200 psi (22,064
kPa).
19. Shut engine down. Allow 90 seconds for the
steering accumulator to bleed completely down.
Disable steering pressure switch from the brake
warning circuit by unplugging
between circuits 33 and 33F. (This is diode 22
on diode board 1) Turn key switch on. After two
minutes, record the low accumulator pressure
(LAP1 port). If LAP1 pressure is below 2600 psi
(17,927 kPa), then leakage in the system is
excessive and the source of the leakage needs
to be identified.
· Record on data sheet.
20. Crack the front brake accumulator bleed down
valve and observe LAP1 pressure. The Low
Brake Pressure lamp and buzzer must actuate
at 2300 ± 75 psi (15,859 ± 517 kPa).
· Record on data sheet.
21. Brake pressures should begin to rise (Auto
Apply) when LAP1 reaches 2000 ± 100 psi.
Close front brake accumulator bleed down
valve.
