SPRING ACTUATED
Note
Friction facing adjustment on spring actuated units is
accomplished while the brake is not actuated. Apply hold-
off air pressure of 5.17-6.90 bar [75-100 psi] to release the
spring Actuator.
1. Apply hold-off air pressure to release the spring Actuator
(See Figure 6).
Note
Before performing step two, determine the actuator type
and select either step 2a or 2b. Step four returns to general
instructions used for both models.

2a. Using a 9/16 inch socket wrench, turn the tap
bolt counterclockwise until the brake is released
(approximately 40 turns). Hold-off air pressure can be
removed at this time and service performed. (Refer to
Figure 6a).

2b. Using a 3/4 inch socket, turn the tap bolt
counterclockwise to fully cage (compress) the spring.
The spring is fully compressed when the bolt is backed
out of the unit 21 mm [0.83 inches]. (Refer to Figure
6b).

2c. Using a 15/16 inch socket, turn the manual release
bolt clockwise until snug to fully cage (compress) the
spring. (Refer to Figure 6c)
3. Loosen the adjustment screw Spanner Nut (Item 12)
(See Figure 5).
4. Turn the Adjustment Screw (Item 8) until a 1/32 inch
spacer can be slid between each of the Friction Facings
(Item 4) and the Friction Disc (See Figure 5).
5. Turn the Adjustment Screw in until the spacer can just
be pulled out.
6. Tighten the Spanner Nut (Item 12) to 13.6-20.3 Nm
[10-15 ft-lb] torque.
Note
Ensure proper hold-off pressure has been maintained.
(This will remove any tension on the tap bolt for
easier release.)
Note
Before performing step seven, determine the actuator
type and select either step 7a or 7b. Step eight returns
to general instructions used for both models.
