The brakes are normally applied when there is no air       pressure. It saves chasing 53' trailers around the lot.              The downside is this time of year with slop from the roads and freezing       temperatures they can freeze in the applied position and the air solenoid       doesn't have the force to break them loose. Enter 5# hammer and much       cursing.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
