PLST Air System.
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, Item 7) provide stopping capability.
