What is an air brake system?

Why is air brake training important?
Air brake training helps drivers understand system components, conduct inspections, recognize defects, and operate air-brake-equipped vehicles safely.
What should I check before driving?
Check the air-pressure gauges, warning devices, air leakage, brake response, compressor operation, and parking brake during your pre-trip inspection.
What does a low-air-pressure warning mean?
It means the system’s air pressure has dropped below a safe level. Stop the vehicle safely and have the system inspected before continuing.
How often should air brakes be inspected?
Drivers should inspect the air brake system during every pre-trip inspection. Regular professional maintenance should also follow the vehicle manufacturer’s schedule and applicable regulations.
What can cause air pressure to drop?
