1. Check the brake functionality when the drive is running: The armature plate must be tightened and the
rotor must move without residual torque.
2. Measure the DC voltage at the brake.

Brake replacement
DANGER
Danger: rotating parts!
Switch off the voltage. The brake must be free of residual torque.
Your system should be mechanically immobilized in the event that it could start moving
when the brake is released.
1. Remove the connection cables.
2. Loosen the screws evenly and then remove them.
3. Pay attention to the connection cable during this step! Remove the complete brake from the end
shield.
4. Pull the brake off the hub.
5. Check the hub's gear teeth.
6. Replace the hub if wear is visible.
7. Check the function of the brake as described in the Release / voltage, Page 40 section. Mount a new
brake if necessary.
8. Reconnect the connection cable and put the brake back into operations.
