1. Does Freinmeister still conduct fleet mechanic air brake training clinics?
A. Freinmeister has developed a series of information clinics to help support those employed in fleet maintenance shops. Three of the air brake clinics are 3 hours in length: Air Brake Systems clinic - Troubleshooting truck, tractor and trailer air brake systems by understanding the drawings. Mechanical Brake Systems Clinic - Troubleshooting S-Cam brake issues including Automatic slack adjusters. Antilock Brake Systems Clinic - Theory, law and basics of troubleshooting with OEM software and computers.
NEW 3 hour "Wheel-End Maintenance is NOT Magic" - our newest fleet mechanic training program is scheduled for release in 2010. We are encouraging fleets to adopt a "Best Practices" truck/trailer maintenance program in every workplace.
A four (4) hour clinic was developed to help some fleets meet the minimum USA standard 396.25. Called Brake Inspection & Adjustment.
A six (6) hour clinic was developed to help City or Municipal fleets establish a minimum shop baseline. For customers with special needs, Freinmeister will assist in the development of a clinic in support of your goals.
If you have an interest in discussing training needs, please don't hesitate to email us. We don't have all the answers, but we may know the people that can help you. .
2. Is there a schedule of planned Canadian FreinMeister® clinic?
A. No. In previous years FreinMeister® created a series of clinics and offered them to local heavy duty parts stores. They would sell seats to their customers.
Today, Freinmeister has become more specialized. If you have training needs for your shop write to ron@freinmeister.com outlining your needs and we will do our best to help you.
3. Is "mark and measure" brake adjustment discussed at clinics?
A. Mark and measure is discussed in detail at our 3 hour Mechanical Brake Clinic and in the 4 or 6 hour clinics.
4. Is "Air Brake Interactive" training material available for online study?
A. No. Air Brake Interactive training materials are solely intended as support material for anyone employed to teach air brakes to others.
