INTRODUCTION
This manual provides you information necessary for the installation, adjustment, inspection, and safe operation of the Holland air release feature for Trailer Sliding Suspensions.
No more pulling. New Air release effectively retracts and engages slider pins with the pull/push of a knob. For added simplicity, the Air Release operates with a proven design air brake chamber just like current braking systems.
No training is required and faster slide relocation is enabled by the simple switch operation.
To adjust the slide, the driver must park on level ground and set all the brakes.The driver reloactes the stop bar to the desired location and pulls out the Air Release knob located on the front of the slider. The air brake chamber then releases the pins and locks in the out position to allow movement.When pins have released the driver slowly repositions the tractor until slide contacts the manual stop bar. Set tractor brakes after positioning is complete. Push in the knob and pins automatically engage and lock into place.
The driver must check to ensure lock pins extend through upper rail.As an added measure of safety, the stop bar must be relocat- ed 1 hole behind slider before operating the vehicle.
For added driver safety, the Air Release only works when the parking brake is set and is connected to the air supply with a valve to prevent draining.
Air Release is available on all models of Holland slides - new and retrofit. Optional manual back up also is available.
