Introduction
This manual provides information necessary for the installation
and operation of the SAF-HOLLAND CBX/CB fixed frame top
mount trailer air suspension. Although the images throughout
this manual depict the CBX23 Fusion, there is no difference in
fit or function between the models in the CBX/CB Series.
NOTE: The CBX suspensions include premium 5.75"
diameter axles, the CB suspensions include 5"
diameter axles.
NOTE: For axle end/brake components replacement, contact
SAF-HOLLAND Customer Service at 888-396-6501.
This suspension uses air drawn from the tractor air system
to pressurize the air springs. The height control valve (HCV)
regulates the air pressure required for varying loads while
maintaining the design ride height. This suspension can
provide a cushioned ride throughout the load range, from
empty to fully loaded.
The suspension also provides excellent side-to-side and
axle-to-axle loading which helps equalize and control braking.
