Retracting Brake Shoes or Brake adjuster Arm
Figure 23 4. Re-install drum on hub using support device such as a
drum dolly jack (Figure 23).
Failure to support weight during installation
or removal of brake drum could create a
crush hazard which, if not avoided, could
result in minor to moderate injury.
Failure to uncage spring brakes in accordance
with manufacturer’s instructions after
servicing is complete will prohibit proper
brake function which could result in
uneven brake system component wear.
10. Retracting the Brake Shoes or
Brake Adjuster Control Arm(s)
IMPORTANT: Refer to brake adjuster’s manufacturer’s
procedures for proper adjustment of the
brake adjusters.
Failure to operate with proper brake
adjuster position could render brakes
inoperable which, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.
NOTE: When servicing the brakes, in some instances it
could be necessary to fully retract the brake shoes
in order to remove the brake drum.
NOTE: When removing the S-Camshaft, it is necessary to
retract the brake adjuster control arm(s) from the
clevis so the brake adjuster can be removed from
the S-Cam shaft.
In both of the notes above, the brake shoes or the brake
adjuster control arm(s) are retracted by turning the adjusting
nut manually on the automatic brake adjuster.
