Automobile brake pad replacement day-to-day maintenance note 6
Brake shoe commonly known as brake pads, belongs to the consumables, in use will gradually wear and tear when wear to the limit position, must be replaced, otherwise it will reduce the effect of braking, and even cause safety accidents. Brake shoe life safety, must be treated with caution.
Most cars in front coil HouGu brake structure, usually before the brake shoe wear relatively quickly, after the brake shoe use time is relatively long, in the daily inspection maintenance should focus on the following aspects:
1. Under normal driving conditions per 5000 km to check a brake shoe, not only to check the rest of the thickness, also check the status of a shoe wear, whether the degree of wear and tear on both sides, whether return freely, etc., found that abnormal situations should be dealt with immediately
2. Generally speaking, iron brake shoe lining and friction materials of two parts, must not be friction materials such as grinding up part did not have to change the shoe. Jetta car front brake shoe, for example, the thickness of the film is 14 mm, and change the limit of the thickness is 7 mm, including more than 3 mm iron plate thickness and thickness of the nearly 4 mm of friction materials. Some vehicle brake shoe with alarm function, once the wear limit is reached, the instrument will alarm prompt replacement shoe. Reaching the limit use shoe must be replaced, even if it is can use for a period of time, will also reduce the braking effect, affect the safety of driving.
3. The change you want to change original spare parts provide brake pads, only in this way, can we make the best braking effect between disk and pads, minimum wear and tear.
4. Replace the brake shoe for a little while must use a special tool to brake pump head back. Cannot use other crowbar hard back, such easy to cause the brake pliers guide screw bending, make the card to death.
5. After the replacement of brake shoe, must be several feet brakes, to eliminate the clearance between the brake disc and shoe, cause the first foot brake, prone to accidents.
6. Brake shoe after replacement, need to running in 200 kilometers in order to achieve the best braking effect, just change the shoe must be careful driving.
