Method of replacing brake force transmission parts in vehicle wheel brakes

摘要

In a key-activated vehicle wheel drum brake -e.g. a so-called S-cam-brake - means for automatically compensating the wear on the brake lining may be inserted between the key and the brake shoe ends by a method involving the steps of removing the original key as well as a predetermined part of the original brake shoe ends. A new key, new brake shoe ends and new automatic compensation means are subsequently added.
