An operator is examining the air lines, brake chambers, and mounting hardware on a drive axle assembly. Which of the following conditions represents a safety defect that requires immediate correction before operating the vehicle?
- AA brake chamber pushrod forming an approximate 90-degree angle with the slack adjuster arm when service brakes are fully applied
- BLight surface corrosion and dry road dust across the exterior of the brake chamber clamping band
- An air supply hose showing visible internal fabric braid reinforcement due to rubbing against a suspension bracketCevap
- DA rubber S-cam shaft grease seal exhibiting minor cosmetic weathering without grease leakage
Cevap
An air supply hose showing visible internal fabric braid reinforcement due to rubbing against a suspension bracket
Commercial vehicle safety inspection regulations prohibit operating with air brake lines or hoses that are cracked, flattened, spliced, or chafed through the protective outer rubber layer to expose the fabric or wire reinforcement. Visible reinforcement plies indicate severe wall degradation, presenting an immediate hazard of air loss or catastrophic hose rupture during braking.
