Hazard
The air piping between the air tank and brake valve is routed improperly, resulting in narrow clearances between the piping and the air horn piping bracket in some vehicles. Continued use in this condition may cause the piping and bracket to interfere due to vibration during operation, resulting in damage, air leakage, and potential loss of braking force in severe cases.

エアタンクからブレーキバルブ間のエア配管の取り回しが不適切なため、当該配管とエアホーン用配管の固定金具との隙間が狭いものがある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、走行中の振動等により当該配管と取付金具が干渉し、損傷してエアが漏れ、最悪の場合、制動力が低下するおそれがある。
Remedy
Replace the air horn piping bracket on all vehicles with a corrected part to ensure adequate clearance with the air piping. Additionally, replace any piping showing signs of contact damage with new piping.
