    I was just stuck on the side of the road cause my brand new trailer the brakes somehow got out of adjustment and smoked up pretty back but the first part of this video helped me out so thank you🙏🏼💯

      You have to check if they even grease the sluck adjusters? Maybe forgot and S-cam got stuck!!! It happen to me on a bobtail after new brakes was installed with new Spider, S-cam and etc. But I’m happy that this video helps to so many people.

    It is important to release the brakes before adjusting and you showed just that. This means the air must be at full pressure and the parking brake in the cab released. Now brakes can be adjusted.
    If you do not release the brakes with the air system, the parking brakes will be under spring tension and there is now way to accurately adjust them.
    GOOD JOB!

      Wow. This is not good. I think you doing something not right.... unless your brakes are cooked. That happens from overheating. Brakes are glazed and don’t work anymore for a stopping, they just sliding. Stop by local place who work with Semi Trucks. They can tell you for sure what’s going on.

    Why release it back again after tightening it, sorry if it sounds stupidity ,new in trucking business ?

    • @afruge4535
      @afruge4535 22 дні тому +2

      Because when you’re doing the adjustment your breaks are released so when you tighten them all the way down if you just left it you wouldn’t be able to move you back it off so you can drive then when you set your breaks after the adjustment they will properly set if that makes sense
