Maintenance

Centre brake rod. Check full thread

engagement in the fork end of the

overrunning device. Secure locking nut.

At the axle ensure compensator plate is

parallel to the axle by setting the adjuster

nuts on the bowden cables. Secure lock

nuts.

Adjust centre brake rod at the rear nut so

there is no clearance between the overrun

lever and the drawshaft and plate. Secure

lock nuts.

Correct adjustment of the linkage can be

checked by engaging handbrake lever on the

second tooth of the ratchet segment. In this

position you should feel a slight braking

force at the wheels.

Finally screw up the self locking nut to give

1mm clearance between the nut and the

spring cylinder.

Note: Reversing will be difficult if either

wheel brake or brake linkage is

overadjusted.

GENERAL NOTES ON

MAINTENANCE

1. Brake Drum/Hub Assembly

The EURO AXLE fitted to your caravan

comes complete with maintenance-free

wheel bearings GREASED AND SERVICED

FOR LIFE. Adjustment is not required during

the design life of the sealed bearing

(100,000 km).

WARNING: If replacement of the brake

drum or shoes is required, this must be

carried out by authorised AL-KO Service

Centres.

If the warning is not observed:

- the warranty is void and

- the wheel may become detached.

Any attempt to slacken the nuts on the stub

axle will result in the toe-in being adjusted.

This will cause:

- Loss of guarantee

- Bad towing performance

- Increased tyre wear

2. Couplings

1. Clean and grease spherical seat, bearing

parts and pivot pins regularly.

2. Thoroughly examine all moving parts for

wear and correct functioning.

3. Couplings should never be drilled.
