The air reservoirs (Figure 4, Item 2) provide air pressure storage on the trailer. Air lines
(Figure 4, Item 8) route air pressure between air components on the trailer. Air hookups
(gladhands) (Figure 4, Item 6) provide a way to hook the trailer air system to the vehicle.
The drawbar airbag (Figure 4, Item 5) provides assistance to raise or lower the drawbar.
The air chambers (Figure 4, Item 3) provide brake activation/deactivation. The load sensing
valve (Figure 4, Item 9) regulates braking power according to load. Relay valves (Figure 4,
Item 1) provide brake activation/deactivation. The multifunction valve (Figure 4, Item 4)
distributes the correct amount of air pressure between components. The brakes (Figure 4,
