Or do I need to plumb something in to enable that capability?

You can dump most of the air by opening the drain valves on the four tanks - wet, service, parking and accessory.  There is no easy way to drain the air from the suspension except by forcing the levelling valves to open.  That requires some way to remove or change the push-rods.
