6.8.1. Wear of brake pads and brake discs
Brake pads and brake discs are subject to functional wear caused by friction
between the two parts. Heavier loads on the cargo bike will lead to increased
wear of both parts compared with a two-wheeled bike. Wear depends on
the riding style, terrain, weather and ground conditions, meaning that no binding
infor mation can be given in this regard.
Brake discs must be replaced after approx. 4 to 5 changes of brake pad pairs,
as they are made of a harder material. A regular inspection of the brake pads is
recommended every 500 km.
6.8.2. Checking the brake pads
The brake pads must be replaced,
• when they are reduced to 2.5 mm thickness (height of carrier plate and
friction lining)
• become contaminated with oil (leads to reduced braking power)
Check thickness of the brake pads as follows:
• First remove the circlip with pliers.
• Unscrew the Allen screw to remove the
brake pads. Remove the brake pads from
above.
• Use a calliper gauge to check the brake
pad thickness
Maintenance Cleaning and care
• Now replace the brake pads as required.
• Slide in the brake pads once again from above.
• Push the Allen screw through brake calliper and pads and tighten the
Allen screw with a tightening torque of 3-5 Nm.
• Secure the screw with the circlip.
7. Cleaning and care
• If necessary, clean the ProCargo CT1 with water, a soft sponge or a soft
brush.
• The Gates Carbon Drive Belt is also cleaned with water and does not need
to be lubricated.
• The contacts of the battery and the battery holder on the frame can be
wiped with a damp cloth. Wait until the contacts are dry before reattaching
the battery.
A high-speed jet of water, for example from a garden hose, can cause
damage to the bearings, NuVinci hub, Bosch batt ery, motor and display.
The manufacturer is not liable for these damages.
The presence of oil on the brake discs or brake pads diminishes
the braking acti on.
-> Avoid any contact from oil with the brake discs or pads!
