Safety and Environmental Guidelines
13 Before removing any device note its position and the connections of all pipework so that the replacement/
serviced device can be properly installed. Ensure that adequate support or assistance is provided for the removal/
installation of heavy items.
14 Only use genuine replacement parts, components and kits as supplied by Knorr-Bremse or the vehicle
manufacturer. Only use the recommended tools as specified in related Knorr-Bremse instructions.
15 The serviced or replaced product must be checked for correct function and effectiveness.
16 If products have been dismantled, serviced or replaced, whose performance could affect braking performance
or system behaviour, this should be checked on a roller dynamometer. Bear in mind that a lower performance
may be experienced during the bedding-in phase if new brake pads/linings and/or brake discs/drums have been
fitted.
17 The use of impact screwdrivers or impact wrenches in conjunction with Knorr-Bremse service tools for air disc
brakes is not permitted. The service tools are not designed for such use. It is likely that the tools or the vehicle
will be damaged and there is a serious risk of injury – see
Caution
on previous page.
18 Do not use compressed air to clean the disc brake. Avoid air contamination of brake dust.
19 Prior to returning the vehicle to service, make certain that all components and the complete brake systems are
leak free and restored to their proper operating condition.
Welding
To avoid damage to electronic components when carrying out electrical welding, the following precautions should
be observed:
1 In all cases, before starting any electrical welding, remove all connections from any electronic control units or
modules, noting their position and the order in which they are removed.
2 When re-inserting the electrical connectors (in reverse order) it is essential that they are fitted to their correct
assigned position - if necessary this must be checked by PC Diagnostics.
