ADJUSTABLE OIL BRAKE DISASSEMBLY
1. Drain the oil from the brake by
removing the drain plug (64).
2. Loosen the spring tension inside the
brake by turning the adjusting
mechanism (14) clockwise until it
stops.
Extreme care should be taken
when removing the cover of the
brake housing. The cover
compresses the spring which is
used to set the brake, thus the
cover is spring loaded against the
cover screws.
3. Loosen and remove the capscrews
(1) and washers (17) from the brake
cover (19). If needed, rotate the
adjusting mechanism counter-
clockwise to allow the spring to apply
force to the cover.
4. Remove the adjusting mechanism
(14) from the brake cover (19) and
inspect the o-ring (26), replace it if
necessary.
5. Remove the spring (5). Grasp the
brake driver (10) and remove the
brake components.
6. Inspect stator plates (3), friction discs
(4), and retaining ring (13) for wear
and replace them if necessary.
7. Noting the direction that the cam
clutch (8) is installed, inspect it for
wear. Replace if necessary.
Failure to re-install the clutch in
the correct orientation will result
in the brake engaging in the
opposite direction.
8. If necessary, remove the brake
housing (12) and replace the oil seal
(16).
