Can anyone tell me if I need to release the airbrakes on my RV while it is parked and on jacks? We have our RV parked for long periods of time with the slides out and on the jacks. ( 2000 Winnebago It...
Air brakes work the opposite of how most people believe. Air is necessary to make them release, not set. Without air, a heavy duty spring actually sets the brakes. Even if you aired up the brakes, the odds are over a few days or weeks the air would bleed off and the brakes would set anyway. Nothing good can happen if your rig can roll away at any time. Set the brakes.
