TM 9-2320-364-10      2-207 b. Driving Down Steep Grades. Do not allow speed to go above 2100 rpm when driving downhill or damage to engine can result. Engine brake operates best when engine speed is between 1650 and 2100 rpm.  Transmission torque converter lockup will disengage below 1650 rpm resulting in loss of engine braking. (1) Adjust transmission range selector (5) as needed. Rapid operation repeatedly of service brakes will consume compressed air supply and cause automatic spring brake application when pressure drops below 45 psi (310 kPa). Failure to follow proper service brake operating procedures may cause serious injury or death to personnel. If pulling trailer during periods of heavy braking, trailer brakes may over adjust and cause trailer brakes to drag when brake drums cool down.  If this occurs, notify Unit Maintenance.  Failure to comply may result in damage to equipment. (2) Use service brake (4) as needed to control truck speed. (3) Use engine brake as needed (Para 2-18).
