NOTE:
All brake fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance
of vital parts and systems, and/or could result in major repair expense. They must be
replaced with one of same part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes
necessary. Do not use a replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque
values must be used as specified during reassembly to assure proper retention of all parts.
There is to be no welding as it may result in extensive damage and weakening of the
metal.
WARNING:
When servicing wheel brake parts, do not create dust by grinding, sanding brake linings,
or by cleaning wheel brake parts with a dry brush or with compressed air. Many wheel
brake parts contain asbestos fibers which can become airborned if dust is created dur-
ing servicing. Breathing dust containing asbestos fibers may cause serious bodily harm.
A water dampened cloth or water based solution should be used to remove any dust
on brake parts. Equipment is commercially available to perform this washing function.
These wet methods will prevent asbestos fibers from becoming airborne.
