Procedure

Use a dial indicator while applying and releasing compressed air through the indicated passage of the center-support rear brake assembly. Maximum air pressure 390 kPa; never apply air for longer than 3 seconds at a time because this damages the seal. The procedure also calls this the rear clutch test. No identification with the differently named technical-table brake rows is assumed.
