down by hand force only DO NOT use your foot or an extension bar, this
will damage the components (Fig. 6).
3) When opening or closing the stabiliser lever, please ensure your hand
does not touch the coupling handle - you may accidentally trap your
fingers! (Fig. 6).
4.10.14 Noises whilst driving
As a rule, the friction pads of the AKS 3004 do not make a noise during
driving. Any clicking, creaking or squeaking noises that do arise may be
due to the following:
a) Foreign bodies or dirt between the friction pad and tow ball. b) Dry
operation of the drawshaft inside the overrun device. c) A detachable
towball which has too much play in the locking mechanism.
4.10.15 Remedial Action
a) Clean the tow ball and friction pads by lightly rubbing the surface (100-
120 grit emery paper)
b) Lubricate the drawshaft sleeve via the grease nipples. In addition, push
the gaiter forward and grease (DIN 51 825 KTA 3K) the exposed part of
the shaft (Fig, 7).
c) Visit a specialist workshop to have the ball holding area
checked for damage and the locking mechanism for
function. If necessary, change the towball.
4.10.16 Storing
To reduce the possibility of contamination of component
parts of the AKS 3004 the stabilising handle should be
closed.
4.10.17 Towing ball
The automobile towing ball should measure 50mm
maximum and 49mm minimum diameter (DIN 74058). If
the ball is below 49mm diameter it should be replaced immediately.
4.10.18 Overrunning device
The device housing is packed with grease on assembly, but will require periodic maintenance to ensure
smooth operation of the braking system.
i. Regrease the shaft bearings via the grease nipples provided at 3000 mile intervals, and before
storage.
ii. Ensure correct functioning of all pivot pins and levers and oil regularly.
iii. Ensure correct functioning of handbrake ratchet and oil regularly.
