i. ii.
iii.
iv. v.
vi.
Bleed off air reservoir pressure by operating the service brake until the ARFF Vehicle air gauge(s) indicate less than 85 psi. Start the engine and increase speed to maximum governed rpm. Monitor the increase in air pressure. Start the stopwatch when the pressure reaches 85 psi. If there is more than one air pressure gauge, start the time when the first gauge indicates 85 psi. Continue monitoring the pressure increase until a minimum of 100 psi is indicated on all gauges; stop the stopwatch, shut off the engine, and record the time. Bleed off air reservoir pressure by operating the service brake until all ARFF Vehicle air gauge(s) indicate less than 5 psi. Start engine and increase speed to maximum governed rpm. Monitor the increase in air pressure. When the gauge for the quick buildup system reaches 5 psi, start the stopwatch. Continue monitoring the pressure increase until the gauge for the quick buildup system reaches the value established for the spring brake release pressure; stop the stopwatch, shut off the engine, and verify that the spring brake release will function at that pressure.
