First, tighten the screw in the opposite direction. If the braking effect is still not good, it's best to perform maintenance and replace the brake pads. Brakes are very important. The car uses external force to apply a certain amount of force to some parts of the car.

I've been driving heavy-duty vehicles for several years and have encountered air brake issues quite often. Before starting, building up air pressure means that after the engine is started, the air compressor automatically works to fill the air tanks. Don't rush to drive—first, take a look at the air pressure gauge on the dashboard. The needle needs to rise between 90 and 120 psi before it's safe to hit the road—that's my experience. In cold weather or if the vehicle has been parked for a while, it might take longer to build up pressure, so wait patiently for a few minutes. Insufficient air pressure makes the brakes feel spongy when pressed, increasing the risk of accidents. I've seen inexperienced drivers rush to move their vehicles, only to fail to stop on a slope, resulting in hefty repair bills. Regularly inspecting the air filter and hose seals during maintenance can prevent air leaks. Remember, after starting, build up air pressure before moving—don't cut corners for convenience.

When I first drove my small truck, I was also curious about this. For air brakes, you just need to start the engine to begin pressurizing—the compressor kicks in as soon as the engine starts—simple, right? But you have to keep an eye on the air pressure gauge on the dashboard and wait until it climbs to the standard value, around 100 psi, before stepping on the gas. Why? If the pressure isn’t sufficient, the brakes won’t work, and if the car in front suddenly brakes, you might not react in time—dangerous stuff. In winter, low temperatures can slow down the pressurization; I’ve had to start the engine twice before it worked properly. I recommend regular maintenance of the air tanks and valves—don’t wait for a breakdown to fix them. It’s all about ease and safety when using them. Don’t make the same mistake I did at first, being too lazy to check the gauge and driving off right away—I almost rear-ended someone that time.

I specialize in maintaining air brake systems, which operate using compressed air. Starting the air supply means activating the compressor after igniting the engine; don't move the vehicle until the pressure gauge shows the standard reading of around 120 psi. The key is to avoid operating under low air pressure, as it can lead to weak brakes and accidents. During inspections, observe if the needle rises at a steady rate—if it's slow, there might be an air leak in the pipes or a compressor malfunction. Remember to regularly replace the dryer to prevent moisture from freezing and causing blockages. Proper maintenance ensures worry-free operation.
