1.1 General information
The SAF SBS 2220/SBS 1918 H0 repair instructions
are divided up into chapters. The sequence of the
chapters is structured in such a way as to make the
instructions easy for the user to read and simple to
follow.

of these repair instructions and of the SAF SBS 2220/
SBS 1918 H0 compressed-air disc brake.

and the potentially hazardous situations which, if not

Chapter "3. Initial and final procedures" describes the
start and finish activities necessary to be able to carry
out inspection and replacement work. It also de-
scribes the function test for the SAF SBS 2220/SBS
