    engine and release the service brake.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    When testing air leakage rates for combination vehicles(before
    applying the brake pedal), air brake systems should not lose air
    faster than\u2026 – ANSWER- 3 psi per minute.
    To check the air compressor governor cut in and cut out
    pressures\u2026 – ANSWER- 1. Run the engine at a fast idle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n

    2. Monitor the air pressure gauge.
      Brake drums: – ANSWER- 1. Are bolted to the wheels.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Are located at each end of the vehicles axles.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Hold the brake shoes and linings.
      When he safety valves releases air it means that\u2026 – ANSWER\u00021. The pressure has exceeded 150 psi.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    5. Too much air pressure is in the air compressor.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    6. Something is wrong, and that you should have it checked by a

      pedal? – ANSWER- Never
      Repeatedly pressing and releasing (fanning) the brake pedal may
      result in ? – ANSWER- A loss of air pressure
      The driver must be able to see a low air pressure warning which
      comes on before pressure in the service air tank falls
      below_____PSI? – ANSWER- 60psi<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      If your truck or bus has dual parking control valves you can use
      pressure from a separate tank. – ANSWER- to release the
      emergency\/spring\/parking brakes to move a short distance.
      The brake pedal in a air brake system. – ANSWER- controls the
      air pressure applied to put on the brakes
      To check the free play of manual slack adjusters of s-cam brakes
      you should? – ANSWER- park on level ground, chock the
      wheels release the parking brakes and pull on the slack adjusters
      Parking or emergency brakes on trucks or buses can be legally
      held on by _<\/em><\/strong> pressure. – ANSWER- Spring
      Emergency stab braking is when you – ANSWER- brake and
      hard as you can, then release the brakes when the wheels lock up
      and put on the brakes again when the wheels start rolling
