Installation and Maintenance Manual
CB8-E
CAUTION
The force transmission between brake shoes and linings should take place by friction and not
by the shear capacity of the mounting bolts. Therefore NO lubricant or other compound must
be applied between brake shoe and lining carrier plate. The needed friction is created by the
clean, dry, lubricant free surface and by the accurate mounting of the bolts.
9.
Adjust reserve stroke by successive opening and closing of the brake several times
(approximately 40- 50 cycles). Control reserve stroke.
CAUTION
An insufficient or not existing reserve stroke may lead to a failure of the brake.
10. Mount cover and sealing on topside of housing.
11. Bed in the new linings. The brake is ready for operation again.
CAUTION
The full torque is only generated after bedding in of the linings. The contact pattern must be
minimum 70% for operation.
5.2 Replacing other components
Although some minor components might be replaced with the brake mounted on site, generally it is
highly recommended to take the brake to a SIBRE workshop for repairs. For removing the brake
follow the instructions given in §4.13.
5.3 Lubrication
Lubrication is not required for this type of brake. All bearings are equipped with self-lubricating
bushings and so virtually free of maintenance.
