FYI K3 colored air tank lanyards

[Joe Hogan]

If you look close, you’ll see that the K3 chassis has colored lanyards to indicate Wet, Primary and Secondary tanks. Silver, Green and Red.
There is a aftermarket kit with colored lanyards you can buy for us Wannabe luxury buyers.

I had colored lanyards on my 2018 DS (K2 chassis).

I just looked and my K3 are colored as well, but so dirty that I had to look closely. Looks nothing like the display

ARD, Well you’re just Special I guess!

Mine are all grey. Today Mikey from Spartan are cleaning them up and installing colored carabiners to help this old guy figure out what he is doing

In case anyone is interested in the Spartan provided draining procedure.

Mine too. I need colored carabiners to put on them like they gave us in the Spartan's Owners Class that I took way back when. Do you still have yours @flyboy013?

colored carabiners

Those help a lot! I need to get some. Maybe I can ply some away from Spartan when I go back there on the 19th.

So of the three, which one is also referred to as the ping tank?

 

[sheridany]

Sorry for my ignorance but why are there three?

 

[Joe Hogan]

Wet tank is first after compressor to capture water, Primary is for rear brakes, secondary is for front brakes.
This is all for redundancy and longevity. There are various safety valved crosses between systems should you lose tank pressure in one of the tanks.
