Practice question
Why is checking for a 90-degree angle between the slack adjuster and pushrod not a reliable way to verify adjustment?
- The angle depends on pushrod length and installation geometry, not just adjustment
- The angle is always exactly 45 degrees on a good brake
- The method works only if the low-air warning is disconnected
- It measures reservoir moisture instead of stroke
Answer: A — The angle depends on pushrod length and installation geometry, not just adjustment
