To clear the brake drum and a board of a brake the vacuum cleaner or alcohol. If the wheel brake cylinder damp to replace it. To slightly grease the adjusting device with MoS2 lubricant. To chisel the drums having grooves at the same time always to process both drums. Brake drums can be chiseled to the maximum diameter of 201 mm.


 PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. To eliminate insignificant roughnesses and traces of a rust with a small emery paper.
  1. To clear six surfaces of contact between brake shoes and a board of a brake and before installation of blocks to cover with a thin layer of heat-resistant lubricant, best of all high-temperature copper paste.
  1. To attach springs to the adjusting device and brake shoes.
  1. Before installation of brake shoes to shift a segment of the adjusting device until it adjoins to a brake board. At the expense of it the distance of blocks is established on the smallest value. For moving of a segment to insert the screw-driver between a finger and a segment and to turn it in the direction of an arrow. Type of a brake from above.
  1. To insert brake shoes at first below, opposite to the wheel cylinder. To install the adjusting device from above between blocks and at the same time to establish blocks on both parties of the wheel cylinder.

Not to load the wheel cylinder only on the one hand, otherwise the piston will be squeezed out on the other hand.

  1. To attach a cable of the emergency brake to the lever.
  1. To establish back and forward blocks on a brake board and to fix by a pin of fastening and a clamping spring. At the same time holding a pin behind, at the same time to press a spring flat-nose pliers and to turn on 90 °.
  1. To check operation of the device of automatic adjustment. For this purpose 2 - 3 times to squeeze out a pedal of a brake (assistant). At the same time the adjusting segment has to move. If it does not occur, so brake shoes were incorrectly established.
  2. To install the adjustment device at the smallest adjustable length.
  3. To install the brake drum and to screw a new nut of a nave.
  4. To adjust a hug bearing side play.

To stop a nut after adjustment, see the Head Podvesk and system of steering.

  1. To screw a wheel, at the same time to watch a tag on a nave. To lower the car and to tighten wheel nuts cross-wise with effort of 100 Nanometers.
  2. To adjust the main gap of back brakes several pressing of a pedal of a brake. At the same time in a brake clicks are heard.
  3. To adjust the emergency brake.
  4. To make trial braking at an average speed on the road, free from transport.
