Brake - Disabling Parking Brake
The park/emergency brake applies to the drive axle only. The brake
can be manually released if the air system will not build sufficient air
pressure to release it. This emergency procedure is to be used by
trained technicians or towing personnel to move the motorhome to a
safe location or repair facility.
WARNING:
Only trained personnel should perform this procedure.
• Place wheel chocks firmly against the wheel before performing this procedure.
• Remove the plug from the center of brake chamber.
• Remove the caging tool from its holder on the brake chamber and insert the tool into hole.
Turn clockwise to engage.
• Screw nut and washer onto caging tool. Use a wrench to tighten the nut, compressing the
internal spring to release the brake.
• After towing, or when air pressure is again available, loosen the nut and remove the tool.
Return the caging tool to its original location and replace the plug.
WARNING:
Failure to securely chock the wheels can result in the motorhome rolling when the
spring brakes are released. Severe injury or death can occur.
