Gap Adjustment
(1) Manually release the brake following the procedure on P71.
(2) Loosen the stopper [16] on the periphery of the center ring [1], and remove. This will free the gap adjusting screws [2].
(See Figure 8-33)
(3) Insert the gap adjusting bar (customer to prepare an angle plate. See Figure 8-35) from between the outer disc [14] and the
center ring [1] into a hole for a gap adjusting screw [2].
Rotating to the left as seen from the field [4] side, will narrow the gap. (See Figure 8-34)
(4) Six attachment bolts [3] and lock bolts [11] alternately pass through the space between the outer disc [14] and the center ring [1].
Rotating the gap adjusting bar will contact these bolts. There are 8 equally distributed holes for gap adjusting screws [2]. Adjust
the gap G to the required value by repeating (3) each time the gap adjusting bar contacts a bolt,.
(5) Select the point where hole and screw hole are closest to the required gap and attach the stopper [16] there.
(6) After returning the manual brake release to its original state, turn power on and off to check brake action.
(7) Attach the brake cover [22], V-ring [23], fan [7], fan set screw [10], cover [8] and outdoor cover [25]. At this time coat the fan set
screw [10] with Three Bond TB2365.
