You drain your air tanks everyday during cold weather which allows water built up in the air tanks to leave the system.

Though they are not labeled and in no order those are Inter axle differential lock which allows you to lock in the front drive tires with the rear drive tires giving more traction...

Air release/lock for sliding the 5th wheel....

The third is the Auto release for the airbags that allow you to dump the air in the drive axle air bags.

HOS:

Hours Of Service

HOS refers to the logbook hours of service regulations.

What is the round object on the right side of the frame??

My guess is that has something to do with the "DEF"... but I like the idea of the canister for a "turkey frier!!" rofl-2.gif

Works just like an alcohol vaporizer ,the air passes thru it and the alcohol dries the water out of the air for like guyjax said air collectswater when goin from cold to hot vise versa.
