Procedure:
Consult the operator’s manual for all related
procedures & safety practices.
Using a pneumatic line, blow out any debris from
under the brake pole and around the aluminum
spacers (Figure 2).
Check the air gap between rotor & armature with
feeler gage. If the gap is less than 0.70”, then
follow the trouble shooting procedure outlined on
pages 14, 15 and 16 of this installation trouble
shooting guide. If the air gap is over 0.70”,
proceed with procedure outline below (Figure 3).
When to remove shim:
When clutch has worn to the extent that the
existing air-gap is too large to allow for complete
clutch engagement (clutch may engage easily
when cold but has problems engaging when hot),
brake shim can be removed to restore air gap and
allow the clutch to continue to function.
(With engine off, key removed and clutch
disengaged)
