The front and rear air tanks should be manually drained once a month, or
more, depending on operating conditions where humidity is high. The front
air tank has a drain valve for both the wet and dry side. The rear air tank
only has one drain valve. Open the drain valves until all air is purged from
tanks, allowing five extra minutes for moisture to be expelled. Remember to
close the tank drain valves. Both air tanks have a pressure relief valve which
is set to release at approximately 130 psi.
A remote air supply coupler is provided for convenience. It
is located in the roadside electrical compartment. This universal
female fitting will accept several types of ¼" ID male air fittings,
including type C automotive. This auxiliary air fitting may be
used to inflate tires, air mattresses or other pneumatic items.
To use this feature:
• Remove the plastic protective dust cap.
• Using a firm grip, insert the air fitting into auxiliary air
supply. The locking collar is spring loaded and will lock
automatically when the fitting is properly inserted.
