Inspection of the Air Brake System Valve
P4 MM 42.01; 5th Generation Cascadia MM
Note: There is no scheduled air valve maintenance
on vehicles equipped with Bendix air valves and a Bendix air dryer
if the air dryer desiccant is replaced at 350,000 miles (563 000 km).
If the desiccant is not changed at 350,000 miles (563 000 km), or
if the vehicle is equipped with another air dryer, maintenance will
have to be performed to the air brake valves. See Group 42 in
the vehicle workshop manual for procedures.
Important: For vehicles equipped with an oil-coalescing air dryer desiccant
cartridge, replace the cartridge once a year, regardless of mileage.
