5.1 Wear Check of Pads and Brake Discs

For optimum safety, the pad and disc wear limits must

not be exceeded.

Brake Pads

The thickness of the pads must be checked regularly

dependent on the usage of the vehicle. The pads should be

checked corresponding to any legal requirements that may

apply. Even if a wear indicator is fitted and connected, this

must be at least every 3 months.

5.1.1 Minor breakouts at the edges are permitted (see

arrow).

5.1.2 Major breakouts on the surface of the brake pad are

not permitted (see Fig.).

5.1.3 If the thickness of the friction material at its

thinnest point is less than

2 mm

(dimension

) the pads

must be replaced (see Fig.).

5.1.1 - Brake pad with minor damage (permitted)

5.1.2 - Brake pad with major damage (not permitted)

5.1.3 - Brake pad thicknesses

= Overall thickness of new brake pad

30 mm

= Backplate

9 mm

= Minimum thickness of friction material

2 mm

= Minimum allowed thickness in worn condition for

backplate and friction material

11 mm

*If these minimum allowed thicknesses are reached, brake

pads must be replaced as an axle set.
