DECOUPLED OPERATIONS
The procedures are used to operate the chassis
with
the
trailer
removed
(decoupled).
Decoupled operations can only be attempted
when the brake and associated control
systems are reconfigured for decoupled
operations.
Do not operate the chassis (decoupled) from
the trailer unless the brake and associated
control systems are configured properly.
Failure to ensure proper brake system
configuration exists, may result in inoperative
service, parking and secondary brake systems.
Operating the chassis with inoperative brake
systems may result in personal injury or
death.
