Figure 1-27. Central Tire Inflation System (CTIS)

The Central Tire Inflation System (CTIS) (Figure 1-27) is designed to adjust the pressure of all tires on the truck for

different traction conditions. The CTIS controller (1) has four pressure settings which the operator selects and

activates in the cab. The CTIS consists of control valves for air supply and distribution, a dash mounted electrical

controller that adjusts tire pressure, along with required air tubing, electrical cables, air dryer and air compressor. The

drive-line lock-up controls with the exception of the TRANSFER CASE LOCKUP are integrated with the CTIS to

simplify operation of the truck. Refer to TM 9-2320-364-10 for operating controls and indicators for the CTIS.

driving controls and gages and some operating controls for the mounted equipment. Refer to TM 9-2320-364-10 for
