E) Installation instructions
Brake linings
Original dimensions and wear limits, see table in chapter
“Maintenance instructions”.
Two different brake linings are riveted onto each brake shoe.
The lining contour tapers towards the ball side.
The thicker end of the brake lining is riveted on the roller side
(S-cam).
Corrosion-proofed steel rivets are used for securing the linings.
The brake linings have a monitoring shoulder on the face end indi-
cating the brake lining type approved by SAF and the wear limit for
the minimum brake lining thickness.
Only brake linings of the same quality may be installed on the same
axle.
Observe the approved rivet quality (see table in chapter
“Maintenance”).
Replacement of the brake lining
Clean all parts and inspect for wear. Inspect the brake drum for
wear and turn down to the next repair stage, if necessary (see table
in chapter “Maintenance instructions”).
Remove the brake lining from the brake shoe.
Thoroughly clean the mounting surface for the brake lining on the
brake shoe; grind slightly, if necessary.
Carefully remove any corrosion from the lining plate. Protect the
contact surface against corrosion with a thin coating of zinc dust
primer.
Replace the brake linings according to the repair stage of the brake
drum (see table in chapter “Maintenance instructions”).
Observe the position of the different brake lining segments.
The thicker end of the brake lining is riveted on the roller side
(S-cam).
