doughbt the book will do him any good as the 4106 did not come with a air operated parking brake and therfore it wont be in the book, it has to be a add on.

Have him check the air governor. If the air is staying low and the switch leaks air when you try to release, that could be the problem. It could also have a cracked or broken line or air tank, but start with the governor first. Cost is about $20 for a replacement.
Good luck.

Dearest Frank,
Apparently you missed the fact that the air operated parking break was factory and what has happened is the daiphram has busted in it so I need to find a replacement diaphram does anyone know where to get one?
Thank you ever so much for any info on this part. |
