Electro Thrust (Model ET) Shoe Brakes
Self Adjust Mechanism (Optional)
 

Options

The self adjust mechanism is designed to provide automatic compensation for linear wear. When a brake is utilized, normal linear wear occurs. With the self-adjust feature, a clutch mechanism maintains the proper actuator stroke by adjusting "in" the tie rod. This also maintains the brake at it's proper operating torque.   For brakes with the self-adjust option, adjustments are made as follows: Remove shoulder bolt 1. Rotate clutch hub 2, to adjust brake, as required. Re-install shoulder bolt 1. Note: For specific procedures see installation section. Maintenance time is reduced as a direct result of employing the self adjust feature.
