INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 10 x 4, 14 x 6 and 18 x 8 Type H Brake Assemblies
Before installing this brake, note the following features: This brake is suitable for floor mounting only.   The brake shoes are adjusted by nut A and clamped by nut A and clamped by nut B.   A shoe-centering plug is at the base of the shoe arm opposite the brake actuator.   The brake assembly is completely adjusted after inspection at the factory. Adjusting nut A may be temporarily backed off to ease installation of the brake on the brake wheel.   The hydraulic actuator should be installed after brake installation.
BRAKE INSTALLATION Install brake wheel. Slip brake on brake wheel.   With clamp nut B loose, tighten adjusting nut A to clamp brake shoe tight against the brake wheel.   Level brake base by plumbing center of brake wheel shaft to index hole C in base of the brake.     Add shims between the brake and support. Bolt brake base to support.   Install brake actuating cylinder between pins D and E.   Using F-17 copper gasket seals, screw short thread end of armored hose into both actuating cylinder ports. Wrench tighten to provide leak-free proof seals.	Use mounting brackets, lock washers, and jam nuts provided to attach free end of hose to rigid support. Allow hose slack to permit movement of actuator.   The brake is now ready to be piped into the hydraulic system. Be sure to adjust the brake before operation. BRAKE ADJUSTMENT Start with brake shoes clamped tight against the brake wheel per item 3.   Loosen adjusting nut A three turns. Tighten clamp nut B.   Both brake shoes should now be approximately 1/32" from the brake wheel. If both shoes are not an equal distance from the wheel, adjust self-centering mechanism. (See item C above.)   Follow "Brake Adjustment" instructions when readjustment is necessary to compensate for lining wear.
