wandering and porpoising, or a continued bouncing ofthe front of the coach after hitting a bump in the road.By knowing what your vehicle weighs, you can determine the best location for yourbelongings.

The rear brakes on the Freightliner chassis are also used as the parkingbrakes. This gives you the holding power off two large drum brakes to keepyour coach from rolling, even when fully loaded on a 20% grade.A loss in air pressure will not result in an immediate loss of brakes. If a leakdevelops in the air system while driving (at approximately 60 to 65 PSI),you will be alerted by a light on the instrument panel and an audible alarm.As you apply the brakes, the air supply holding the brakes in the releasedposition will gradually be depleteddepleted. When fully depleted (approximately 40PSI to 45 PSI), the rear brakes will set. This gives you plenty of time to pullover to the side of the road.NOTE: The rear brakes have dual chambers, one for the servicebrakes and one for the park brake. The service brakes are air appliedand spring released. The park brake is spring applied and airreleased.The brakes are quipped with automatic slack adjusters that eliminate theneed to manually adjust your brakes. Each time you step on the brakepedal, if adjustment is needed, the adjusters take up the slack. That’s allthere is to it.25

Air SystemyMYTH: Air systems require little maintenanceFACT: FCCC provides automatic moisture ejectors this eliminates the needto drain tanks drain cables provided which allow tanks to be drained fromabove every 6 MONTHSwww.freightlinerchassis.com30
Freightliner chassis are equipped, as standard equipment, with aheated automatic moisture ejector on the wet tank in addition to onebuilt into the air dryer. This eliminates the need to climb under thecoach to drain air and water from the tanks daily. You still must pull allthree drain lanyards for 10 to 15 seconds every 6 months to drainmoisture. A fine mist is normal due to condensation. If a large amountof moisture is present it should be completely drained and the airdryer serviced. Moisture in the braking system can cause brakesystem failure and is not covered by the manufacturer warranty.31
This manifold is usually located somewhere toward the front of the coach i.e.firewall, front compartment. The location depends on the coachmanufacturer.(WARNING: Air tanks should be bled of all pressure any time you workon the air system)32
