3. If only a red indicator is visible (Fig
13/Item 3), then this may have the
following causes:
a. AKS 2004 is okay but the towball has
reached the lowest limit of 49mm
b. AKS 2004 shows signs of wear
c. Towball is in a new condition (50mm)
but the front/rear friction pads show a
high degree of wear.
Establish the diameter of the towball so that
conclusions may be drawn as to the wear of
the friction pads (ball diameter must not be
less than 49mm).
