أظهر الإجابة
الإجابة: D. Put the seals together at a 90-degree angle, then turn to lock
Put the seals together with the couplers at a 90-degree angle to each other and turn them so they lock.
السؤال 12 من 25
You crossed the air lines when coupling. What will happen to a trailer with spring brakes?
- The trailer brakes will work normally
- The spring brakes will not release
- The tractor brakes will fail
- The trailer lights will go out
أظهر الإجابة
الإجابة: B. The spring brakes will not release
With crossed lines, supply air goes to the service line instead of the tanks, so the spring brakes stay on.
السؤال 13 من 25
What are dummy couplers for?
- Testing the trailer brakes before a trip
- Locking the fifth wheel in place
- Connecting a second trailer to the first
- Keeping water and dirt out of unused air lines
أظهر الإجابة
الإجابة: D. Keeping water and dirt out of unused air lines
Use dummy couplers or plugs when the air lines are not connected to keep dirt and water out.
السؤال 14 من 25
How often should you drain the trailer air tanks?
- Once a week
- Only in winter
- Every day
- Once a month
أظهر الإجابة
الإجابة: C. Every day
Water and oil in the trailer tanks can keep the brakes from working right, so drain each tank every day.
السؤال 15 من 25
In a combination with shut-off valves (cut-out cocks), which valves should be closed?
- The ones at the front of every trailer
- All of them
- Only the ones on the tractor
- Only the ones at the back of the last trailer
أظهر الإجابة
الإجابة: D. Only the ones at the back of the last trailer
All shut-off valves are open except those at the back of the last trailer, which must be closed.
السؤال 16 من 25
Which trailers are not required to have spring brakes?
- Trailers built after 2000
- Trailers under 40 feet
- Trailers built before 1975
- Refrigerated trailers
أظهر الإجابة
الإجابة: C. Trailers built before 1975
Trailers built before 1975 do not have to have spring brakes. Their emergency brakes depend on air stored in the tanks.
السؤال 17 من 25
You park a trailer that has no spring brakes. What should you do?
- Chock the wheels
- Leave the air lines connected
- Rely on the trailer emergency brakes overnight
- Set the trailer hand valve
أظهر الإجابة
الإجابة: A. Chock the wheels
Without spring brakes, the trailer's emergency brakes use stored air, which can leak away. Use wheel chocks.
