Brakes
(with controlled back off)
Axles are fitted with brake controlled back off to maintain a
constant clearance of 0.6mm (0.02in) within the brake pack.
It is important that only one side at a time is dismantled to
p revent d am ag e t o t he b earing s and p reserve t he
crownwheel and pinion backlash setting.
! WARNING
A raised and badly supported machine can fall on you.
Position the machine on a firm, level surface before
raising one end. Ensure the other end is securely
chocked. Do not rely solely on the machine hydraulics or
jacks to support the machine when working under it.
Disconnect the battery, to prevent the engine being
started while you are beneath the machine.
GEN 1-1
Dismantling
1
It is recommended that the axle be removed from the
machine when dismantling the rear axle brakes.
2
Remove bolts 1. Use a heavy duty socket to unscrew
them.
3
Jack the axle arm off the drive head, using the drive
head securing bolts. Remove all traces of gasketing
from the mating faces.
4
There are two counterplates 2, one at each end of the
brake pack, which are not secured to the plate carrier 3.
If the plates are to be re-used, note their positions and
which way round they are then withdraw the brake
pack.
Remove the circlip 4. If the brake pack is to be re-used,
5
note the positions of the plates before removing them.
6
Wear limit of friction plates is to the depth of the cross
hatching A. Check all plates for flatness and damage.
(Some scoring of the counterplates is normal.) Renew
the brake pack complete if worn or damaged. Do not
renew individual plates.
7
Remove the three reaction pins 5. Inspect for damage.
Note: If new brake and friction plates are being fitted new
brake back off pins and tension bushes must also be fitted.
Failure to do so could result in the brake being permanently
on.
