Remove any restrictions at exhaust (bottom)
of solenoid valve.
앫
Clutch switch stuck in ON position or out
of adjustment
— Check for proper
operation. Readjust or replace as needed.

Removal and Inspection of MACK
PowerLeash™ Engine Brake
Components
INSPECTION
If oil pressure to the rocker shaft is not sufficient
for engine brake operation, inspect the oil supply
screen in the bottom of the front rocker shaft
mounting bracket for debris, and clean or replace
as necessary.
If oil pressure at the rocker shafts is sufficient for
engine brake operation, then inspect the engine
brake hydraulic actuator components for excess
wear or damage.
1. Remove the retaining ring that holds the
control piston cap in place on top of the
actuator. Remove and inspect the control
piston and spring. Free length of the spring
should be 0.955 inch (24.3 mm). If the spring
is broken or the free length is not within
specifications, replace the spring.
2. Check the control piston for freedom of
movement in the actuator bore. The control
piston must move freely. If the piston binds
or sticks, or if there are burrs on the piston or
in the bore or if there is evidence of scuffing,
replace the piston. Check the pintle on the
end of the piston and replace if broken or
showing evidence of wear.
