AIR BRAKE

The air brake is an electro-pneumatic braking system and includes a two button
pendent. The air brake can be utilized to quickly slow the drum after a run is
complete. This is especially useful for two-stroke applications when engine
compression cannot be used to slow the drum. The air brake can also greatly speed
up the testing process.
When upgrading from a mechanical brake, you will no longer use the sample button;
you will need to use the new two button pendant (P/N DC100-104). The new pendant
attaches to the same nine-pin terminal on your hardware stack.
If you purchased your dyno with an air brake assembly, the air brake will already be
installed. You will need to provide an air hose nipple to connect your shop air supply
(80 psi constant line pressure) to the dynamometer. Once air pressure is connected,
the air brake is ready to use.

To prevent possible injury, disconnect the battery before performing any dyno
maintenance or installing any optional accessory.
