3. MOUNTING PROCEDURE
3.1. Insert Mounting Bolts through Sleeves (9) and thread Brake Mounting Locking Nuts as far
as possible on Mounting Bolts. This is not required if brake assembly comes with the
sleeve/bolt sub-assy (9). Position the brake over disc and align with mounting holes in
mounting bracket.
3.2. Thread mounting bolts into mounting bracket, adjusting bolts until a .020” - .060” gap
exists between the Sleeves (9) and the Locking Nuts. Tighten the Locking Nuts to 100
to 120 lb-ft of torque against the bracket.
3.3. Refer to Adjustment Procedure to set clearance of installed brake assembly.
4. ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE
4.1. Loosen two Adjustment Nuts (12 & 13) (one full nut and one jam nut except when using a
0.50 inch thick disc which requires two jam nuts).
4.2. Tighten inner Nut (12) until firm contact is made with the disc by the linings. Torque to
100 lbs in. Make certain Lever (1) is in proper operating position for application.
4.3. Back off inner Nut (12) 4 to 5 flats and check that disc is free to move.
4.4. Tighten outer Nut (13) against inner Nut (12) to lock Adjustment Bolt (2) in place. Torque
to 45 to 55 lb-ft.
5. Break inspection and maintenance
5.1. Inspection of brake and surroundings
Dirt or oil on the brake itself or its surroundings may have an adverse effect on brake
performance and should be removed with a brush or a lint-free cloth.
5.2. Appearance inspection of the lining pad assembly (6)
If any cracks or abrasion have occurred in the friction material, replace the lining pad
assembly. (See point 7 for the replacement method)
5.3. Thickness inspection of lining pad assembly (6)
The wear limit for the friction material of the lining pad assembly (excluding the carrier)
is .12in. If it is less than .12in, replace the lining pad assembly. (See point 7 for the
replacement method)
5.4. Greasing of moving parts
<Stainless ball bearing(8), cam(4)>
Grease is sufficiently applied during assembly, but the stainless ball bearing and cam
should be disassembled and grease reapplied annually.
If a worn down part is discovered during inspection, replace the stainless ball bearing(8),
cam(4), and retainer(14) as a set. (See point 6 for the replacement method)
