Brake hose rubbing tire
Root Cause
• While tightening the brake hose at the C/S
front brake chamber some buses have had the
brake line twist toward the front tire during
the torqueing process, this is not present on
the street side, this hose when torqued moves
away from the tire due to it being the
opposite direction as the curb side.
A 30mm minimum of clearance is
required between brake hose and tire
Lock bus out
• Place jack stands at yellow jacking points at
the front of the bus, once complete, it is safe
to measure inside the C/S and S/S wheel well.
• Measure distance between brake hose and
tire, turning the wheel to the right will make it
easier if the bus is on the ground or it can be
done with the wheels straight if the bus is in
the air or over a pit.
Measure distance between brake hose
and tire at its closest point
If there is less than 30MM and no contact between the brake
hose and tire has been made, conduct the following procedure,
keep bus locked out/chocked/stands in place
Cut 2 blue zip
ties, be sure to
not cut into
brake hose
Loosen “P” Clamp
With “P” Clamp loose, gently slide the hose
toward the back of the bus until a minimum
of 30mm is reached between the tire/brake
hose. Re-tighten “P” clamp and re-install
blue tie-wraps as originally oriented.
Check connection at brake chamber
• Verify the hose is not kinked/stressed where
the fitting is crimped onto the hose at the
brake chamber.
If contact has been made:
• The brake hose must be replaced.
• The repair can be done with the bus on the
ground with the wheel turned all the way to
the right, over a pit, or on a lift. Follow all local
safety procedures.
Empty primary and secondary air
tanks, red and green shown below
Remove zip ties from brake hose for
ABS and brake wear sensor
• Be cautious when cutting, do not cut into
cables
Remove “P” clamps from brake hose
X3
Disconnect air hose and discard
Install new air hose into “P” clamps,
follow routing shown below
34-38Nm
Air hose installation continued
Air hose installation continued
• SAE 37° JIC flare fitting assembly instructions
• 6.1.1 Inspect the contact surface and threads
for any damage or material flaw.
• (Do not apply sealer on threads.)
Air hose installation continued
• Use thread size to determine torque to be applied (see
Table 5).
• 6.1.4 Screw in the adapter or fitting by hand to ensure
threads are correctly engaged
• and finger tighten as much as possible.
• 6.1.5 Using a wrench, complete tightening to the
recommended torque (see Table 5).
• 6.1.6 Apply anti-tamper seal (“Torque Seal”) to indicate
torque has been applied (AVT-0203).

Measure brake hose to tire
• Be sure the 30MM requirement is met.
• If not, adjust hose as shown on previous slides
Remove jack stands and unlock bus
• Run bus until governor cut-out (approx
135PSI)
• Turn steering wheel lock to lock several times.
• Kneel bus and bring back to ride height.
• With bus running and qualified personnel in
the driver seat, release parking brake and
depress brake pedal to the floor, have a helper
check for leaks at the brake hose connections
with snoop or soapy water, watch for bubbles.
Leak check
• If no leaks are present, the bus can be
released
• If leaks are detected, the connections must be
disassembled, checked for damage and retorqued to 34-38NM, do not over-torque.
