General Safety

1. General Safety Instructions

General and Servicing Safety Instructions



Read and observe all Warning and Caution hazard alert messages. The alerts provide information that can help prevent serious personal injury, damage to components, or both.

Failure to follow the instructions and safety precautions in this manual could result in improper servicing or operation leading to component failure which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.



All maintenance should be performed by a properly trained technician using proper/special tools, and safe procedures.

NOTE: In the United States, workshop safety requirements are defined by federal and/or state Occupational

Safety and Health Act (OSHA). Equivalent laws may exist in other countries. This manual is written based on the assumption that OSHA or other applicable employee safety regulations are followed by the location where work is performed.



Properly support and secure the vehicle from unexpected movement when servicing the unit.

Failure to properly support and secure the vehicle and axles prior to commencing work could create a crush hazard which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.



Several maintenance procedures in this manual require re-positioning of the brake chamber, brake calipers and/or ABS system. Consult the manufacturer’s manual for procedures on the proper operation of brake chamber, brake calipers and/or ABS system.



Service both roadside and curbside of an axle. Worn parts should be replaced in sets. Key components on each axle’s braking system, such as friction material and rotors will normally wear over time.

IMPORTANT: Key components on each axle’s braking system, including brake pads and brake rotors, are intended to wear over time. Worn parts should be replaced in sets on both the driver and curb side of an axle.

Failure to follow manufacturer’s instructions regarding spring pressure or air pressure control could allow uncontrolled release of energy which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.



The wheel contact surfaces between the wheel and hub

MUST NOT receive additional paint.

IMPORTANT: The wheel contact surfaces MUST be clean, smooth and free from grease.

Failure to keep wheel and hub contact surfaces clean and clear of foreign material could allow wheel/hub separations which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.



Only the wheel and tire sizes approved by the trailer builder can be used.

Operational and Road Safety Instructions



Before operating vehicle, ensure that the maximum permissible axle load is not exceeded and that the load is distributed equally and uniformly.



Make sure that the brakes are not overheated from continuous operation.

Failure to minimize the use of brakes during overheating conditions could result in deterioration of brake efficiency which could result in death or serious injury.



The parking brake MUST NOT be immediately applied when the brakes are overheated. Refer to the rotor wear inspection information in Section 5.2.

If the parking brake is immediately applied to the brakes when overheated, the brake discs could be damaged by different stress fields during cooling.



Observe the operating recommendation of the trailer manufacturer for off-road operation of the installed axles.

IMPORTANT: The definition of OFF-ROAD means driving on non-asphalt/non-concrete routes, e.g. gravel roads, agricultural and forestry tracks, on construction sites and in gravel pits.

IMPORTANT: Off-road operation of axles beyond the approved application design could result in damage and impair suspension system performance.



SAF

®

axles require routine service, inspection and maintenance in order to maintain optimum performance, and operational safety as well as an opportunity to recognize natural wear and defects before they become serious. Refer to the Routine Service Schedule in Section 17.

Failure to inspect and maintain the

Disc Brake Inspection

5. Disc Brake Inspection

IMPORTANT: During removal inspect components for wear and replace worn components.

Failure to properly support axle during maintenance could allow axle to fall which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

NOTE: For further disc brake inspection information, refer to the latest version of the TMC recommended practice RP 652–Service and Inspection of Air Disc

Brakes (TMC DVD supplement).

5.1 Pad Wear Inspection

Check the brake pads for proper thickness at regular service intervals based on vehicle usage. Brake pad inspections should be carried out at least every three (3) months or 20,000 miles, whichever comes first, and in accordance with any legal requirements. Refer to Routine Service Schedule in Section 17.

NOTE: Regular service intervals may be required more frequently for severe duty applications. Refer to

Section 17.

A quick visual inspection of the condition of the brake pads can be performed without removing the wheel:

1. Compare the position of the caliper marking to the carrier marking located on the underside of the caliper unit (Figure 3). a. Figure 3 - View A shows the positions of the two (2) markings when the brake pads are in good condition.

b. Figure 3 - View B shows the positions of the two (2) markings when the wheel MUST be removed for further inspection of wear to the brake pads and brake rotor.

For further inspection of the brake pads, the wheel and brake pads MUST be removed. Refer to the Knorr/Bendix SK7 brake pad change service data sheet SD-23-7541 Air Disc Brake which can be found at www.bendix.com for more information.

IMPORTANT: After inspecting the brake pads, check that the brake system is functioning properly.

IMPORTANT: When replacing worn brake pads, ALL pads on the axle MUST be replaced.

If the friction material of the brake pad is less than 0.43" (11 mm) at its thinnest area, the brake pad MUST be replaced. (Figure 6).

NOTE: Minor breakouts at the edges are permitted. Major breakouts on the surface of the brake pad are NOT permitted (Figure 4).

5.2 Rotor Wear Inspection

1. Carefully inspect both sides of the brake rotor friction surface (Figure 5). a. Spider web cracking is acceptable (Area A).

b. Radial cracks less than 0.06" (1.5 mm) deep or wide with lengths less than 75% of the width of the rotor friction surface (Area B) are acceptable.

c. Grooves in the rotor surface are acceptable only if they are less than 0.06" (1.5 mm) deep (Area C).

d. Cracks that run completely to either edge of the hub are NOT acceptable, regardless of depth (Area D).

2. Measure the brake rotor thickness and re-surface, if necessary. For proper brake function, the minimum thickness for re-surfacing the brake rotor is defined as

1.54-1.57" (39-40 mm).

Re-surfacing the brake rotor beyond the minimum thickness could cause component failure which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT use high-pressure cleaners or liquid cleaners on the brake rotor.

If the overall wear limits for the brake rotor or brake pads are exceeded (Figure 6), the rotor and pads MUST be replaced.

Refer to rotor replacement instructions as detailed in Section 8.

For brake pad replacement, refer to instructions available on the Knorr/Bendix website.

For both the inner and outer pads, the maximum brake pad wear difference is 0.2" (5.0 mm).

10. Seal, Bearing, and Hub Installation and Adjustment

IMPORTANT: DO NOT mix oil and grease wheel end lubricants. Although all SAF-HOLLAND

®

P89

INTEGRAL

®

Disc Brake wheel ends are factory lubricated with NLGI 00 semi-fluid grease, wheel end can be serviced with oil or grease.

Before servicing the SAF-HOLLAND

®

P89 wheel end with oil, all grease MUST be cleaned with appropriate solvent from the bearings and hub.

NOTE: Athough all SAF-HOLLAND

®

P89 INTEGRAL

®

Disc

Brake wheel ends are manufactured with spindle mounted wheel seals they can be serviced with either spindle or hub mounted seals.

10.1 Spindle mounted wheel seal Installation instructions. (Refer to 10.2 for hub mounted wheel seal instructions.

1. Before installing the wheel seal on the axle spindle, inspect the machined spindle seal surface for nicks, scratches, burrs or marks. If needed, use crocus cloth or emery cloth to repair any damaged areas.

2. Clean the threads and keyway thoroughly with a wire brush to avoid false bearing adjustments and to avoid introduction of contaminants into the lubricant cavity.

3. Thoroughly clean the spindle and spindle threads of rust, dirt, grease or any other contaminants that could damage the hub seal and cause it to leak.

NEVER install a spindle mounted wheel seal in the hub and then force it onto the axle spindle by tightening the axle nut.

Damage to seal will result.

To avoid damaging the seal, support the hub against the spindle inner shoulder until the outer bearing and adjusting nut are installed.

4. Apply a thin layer of sealant to the O.D. of the spindle shoulder. Place the wheel seal on the spindle with the side labeled “oil-bearing side” facing out towards the end of the spindle (Figure 16).

5. Seat wheel seal into place using a hub seal installation tool and hammer. Rotate the wheel seal installation tool 1/4-turn with every hammer tap until the seal is properly seated with the metal face of the seal flush with the inner shoulder of the axle spindle (Figure 17). Clean and remove any excess sealant.

6. Prepare the hub. Remove the old lube and thoroughly clean the hub cavity and hub bore. If needed, use emery cloth to remove any burrs or old bore sealant. Inspect the hub bore for damage. Replace if necessary.

7. Install new inner and outer bearing cups into the hub as necessary (Figure 18).

8. Install inner bearing on spindle (Figure 18).

NOTE: If using oil for lubrication, coat bearings with oil before installation. Refer to Section 11 for proper wheel end oil lubrication instructions (Figure 18).

Failure to lubricate bearing correctly and maintain proper lubrication could result in bearing damage.

NOTE: If using grease and NOT oil for hub lubrication, the inner and outer bearing, and the hub cavity MUST be pre-packed with grease before installation. Lubricate wheel end components with grease specified in Section 16.

9. Lubricate inside of hub cavity and install on spindle (Figure 18).

NOTE: Be sure wheel seals are properly installed before performing the hub bearing adjustment procedure.

10.2 Hub Mounted Wheel Seal

Installation Instructions

1. Remove all burrs from the hub bore and spindle. Thoroughly clean hub cavity and spindle.

NOTE: DO NOT apply any sealant to the spindle shoulder.

2. Place the hub on a smooth, hard surface in a horizontal position. Pre-lube the inner bearing and place it into the hub bearing cup (Figure 19).

NOTE: When using grease, pre-pack the inner bearing before placement into the hub.

3. Place the wheel seal on the installation tool, make sure that the words “oil-bearing side” faces the inner bearing.

Position the tool (with the seal correctly mounted in the tool head) into the hub bore. Use a three to five pound hammer to drive against the end of the tool. Drive seal into bore until complete bottoming is assured (Figure 20).

Remove the installation tool and apply a thin layer of lubricant on the I.D surface of the seal.

NOTE: DO NOT apply lubricant to the O.D. of the seal.

4. Gently push the head unit onto the spindle to the proper position. Fill the hub cavity with lubricant until it runs over the outer bearing cup. Coat the outer bearing with lubricant and place the outer bearing on the spindle and into the bearing cup (Figure 21).

NOTE: When using grease, pre-pack the hub cavity. The grease fill amount should be to a 3 o’clock and

9 o’clock level. This is to ensure a 50% hub cavity fill. Use a template to hold grease in place while filling the hub cavity (Figure 21).

DO NOT ram the hub into the spindle bearing shoulder. This could damage the wheel seal.

7. Adjust the bearing using the Pro-Torq ® axle nut: a. Use a screwdriver to carefully pry the keeper arm from the undercut groove on each side until the keeper is released.

b. Seat the bearing. Using a torque wrench, tighten the nut to 200 ft.-lbs. (271 N•m) and spin the wheel at least one

(1) full rotation. PERFORM THIS STEP THREE (3)TIMES.

c. Back the nut off until it is loose.

d. Adjust the bearing. Using a torque wrench, tighten the nut to 100 ft.-lbs. (137 N•m). Spin the wheel at least one

(1) full rotation. PERFORM THIS STEP THREE (3) TIMES.

e. Back the nut off one raised face mark (1/8 of a turn).

f. Install the keeper with orange side facing out by inserting the keeper tab into the undercut groove of the nut and engage the keyway tang in the axle keyway. Insert keeper tab with bent legs facing out.

g. Engage the mating teeth of the keeper with the teeth of the wheel nut.

h. Compress and insert the keeper arms, one at a time, into the undercut groove with a screwdriver.

i. If the keeper teeth DO NOT line up with teeth in nut, loosen the nut slightly until they engage.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT tighten nut to align teeth.

Failure to properly tighten nut could result in bearing damage which, if not avoided, could result in bearing failure.

j. Using a dial indicator, verify that end play reading is .001"

(0.03 mm) to .003" (0.08 mm). Re-adjust bearing, if necessary.

8. Make sure that the keeper tab and keeper arms are fully seated into the undercut groove. Inspect the keyway tang to ensure it does not contact the bottom of the keyway

(Figure 23). If contact exists, immediately notify a

Pro-Torq

®

representative.

Failure to ensure that the keeper is properly installed could cause wheel separation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

9. Check the wheel bearing end play as follows: a. Attach the magnetic base of a dial indicator to the spindle. Touch dial indicator stem to hub cap gasket face (Figure 24).

b. Reading Number One - Slightly rotate wheel-end in both directions while pushing inward until dial indicator does not change. Set the dial indicator to zero (Figure 24).

d. End play is the difference between reading number one and reading number two.

NOTE: Final adjustment should allow the wheel to rotate freely with 0.001" - 0.003" (0.03 mm - 0.08 mm) end play. If end play is not within specification, re-adjustment of bearing is required.

IMPORTANT: If end play is not within specification, re-adjustment is required.

Failure to maintain proper hub bearing adjustment could allow bearing failure and wheel-end separation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

11. Hub Lubrication (Oil)

IMPORTANT: DO NOT mix oil with grease. If the bearing assembly has been lubricated with grease,

DO NOT add oil.

Failure to correctly lubricate bearings could damage bearings which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

1. Remove plug and fill the hub to the FULL mark with specified lubricant (oil), through the hole in the hub cap (Figure 25).

2. Allow the oil to flow through the bearings and level off.

3. Insert the plug into the hole in the hub cap (Figure 25).

IMPORTANT: Axles equipped with a centralized tire inflation system MUST use a vented hub cap.

4. Re-install wheel on hub using support device such as a wheel dolly jack.

Failure to support weight during installation or removal of brake drum could create a crush hazard which, if not avoided, could result in minor to moderate injury.

Failure to uncage spring brakes in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions after servicing is complete will prohibit proper brake function which could result in uneven brake system component wear.

12. Hub Cap Installation

1. Install the hub cap assembly, making sure the hub cap gasket is in place (Figure 26).

IMPORTANT: When installing hub cap, make sure the hub cap gasket is not bent or damaged.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT over torque. This can crush the hub cap gasket.

Failure to avoid damaging the hub cap gasket could allow lubricant to lead which, if not avoided, could result in bearing failure.

2. Install the six (6) bolts to secure the hub cap assembly

(Figure 26). Tighten bolts to 12-16 ft.-lbs. (16-21 N•m).

13. Caliper Installation

1. Re-install the caliper onto the brake spider using four (4) new SAF

®

specific brake caliper bolts (Figure 27): a. Pre-torque the bolts to 88 ft.-lbs. (120 N•m) from

inner bolts to outer bolts using a size 24 mm socket.

b. Verify the pre-torque of the bolts a second time, and

if necessary re-tighten all bolts to 88 ft.-lbs. (120 N•m).

c. Final torque from inner bolts to outer bolts to

± 22 ft.-lbs. (450 ± 30 N•m).

NOTE: The caliper is connected to the disc brake spider using four (4) SAF specific bolts: three (3) standard bolts and one (1) shoulder bolt (Figure 27).

The shoulder bolt is located at the top mounting hole whether the caliper is installed forward or rearward of the axle.

IMPORTANT: Make sure that the brake caliper is mounted on the correct side of the axle. The correct position can be identified by the lengths of the guide pins on the caliper unit. The longer guide pins should be positioned on the bottom of the caliper unit when installed rear of the axle and on top when forward of the axle (Figure 28).

2. Re-install the SAF

®

brake chamber by following the instructions in SAF

®

Brake Chambers Installation and

Service Guide XL-SA10062IM-en-US available on the internet at www.safholland.us.

3. Re-install the ABS sensor by following the instructions detailed in Section 15.1.

4. To enable the ABS sensor to function properly press the

ABS sensor against the ABS toner ring at the hub unit to eliminate any clearance between these parts.

IMPORTANT: After replacing the rotor, verify that the brake system is functioning properly.

Failure to verify brake system function after rotor replacement could result in brake malfunction which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
