Survey
Brake drum
|
|
|
|
Examine a drum as far as it is pure. Check wear of a brake surface, having measured its internal diameter.
Internal diameter of the brake drum
"a": standard: 220 mm (8.66 inches)
Wear limit: 222 mm (8.74 inches)
|
Every time at removal of brake drums it is necessary to clear and check carefully them whether there are no cracks, notches, deep furrows.
Drum with cracks, notches or grooves
To use a drum with cracks it is unsafe, it should be replaced.
Do not try to weld the burst drum.
Grind all easy notches. Deep or extensive notches will cause excess wear of a brake slip therefore it will be necessary to cover the brake surface of the reel again. If brake slips are a little worn-out and the drum has grooves, the drum should be polished with a thin emery paper, but not to overturn.
|
|
When the drum is removed, examine whether there is no leak of brake fluid in the wheel cylinder. Eliminate leaks if they are. |
