BRAKES
BRAKE ADJUSTMENT AND LINING TOLERANCE
No adjustment of brake lining clearance is necessary as they are self-adjusting. Inspection of lining is nec-
essary, and it may be inspected visually while installed on airplane. Linings are of riveted type and should
be replaced if thickness of any one segment becomes worn below .100 of an inch or unevenly worn.
