A pressure control valve is fitted only to early trucks with a
pusher axle bogie - up to and including ʻElectronics ʻ98.
The valve controls the pressure in the non-drive axle air
bellows, in proportion to the pressure in the drive axle air
bellows.
In this way, the weight distribution between the axles
ensures optimum traction.
