4. Inspection points
Although durable materials have been used,
the general condition of the components must
be checked on a regular basis. The following
information indicates the inspection points of the
disc brake, which if adhered to will help to ensure
long-term, problem-free use of the product.
Every 3 months
The wear state of the brake disc and brake pads
must be checked, irrespective of any indication in
the vehicle (see Chap. 5.1).
On each pad change
The adjustment function (see Chap. 5.2) and the
movement of the calliper over the entire movement
path (see Chap. 5.3) must be checked. In addition,
the pressure fitting bellows (13), cap (37), sealing
elements (9, 58) and calliper bearing in the slide
bearing (6) area must be checked for clearance and
damage (see Chap. 5.3.4).
Annually
The movement of the brake calliper within the
clearance (see Chap. 5.3.1) and the presence of
the cover (10), cap (37) and cover (68) must be
checked.
Note: These are minimum intervals. Depending on
use, more frequent component inspection may be
required.
Ensure to observe the information from the vehicle/
axle manufacturer with respect to service intervals
and legally stipulated inspections!
The brake discs must be inspected in accordance
with the information from the axle/vehicle
manufacturer.
To facilitate objective determination of the cause of
a complaint, all damaged parts must be returned in
the event of a complaint.
