General Visual Inspection of the Landing-Gear Brake Units

WARNING: PUT THE SAFETY DEVICES AND THE WARNING NOTICES IN POSITION BEFORE
YOU START A TASK ON OR NEAR:
- THE FLIGHT CONTROLS
- THE FLIGHT CONTROL SURFACES
- THE LANDING GEAR AND THE RELATED DOORS
- COMPONENTS THAT MOVE.
MOVEMENT OF COMPONENTS CAN KILL OR CAUSE INJURY TO PERSONS AND/OR
CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT.

WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE GROUND SAFETY-LOCKS ARE IN POSITION ON THE
LANDING GEAR. THIS WILL PREVENT UNWANTED MOVEMENT OF THE LANDING
GEAR, AND THUS POSSIBLE INJURY TO PERSONS AND DAMAGE TO THE

WARNING: LET THE BRAKES AND THE WHEELS BECOME COOL BEFORE YOU GO NEAR THE
LANDING GEAR. DO NOT APPLY A LIQUID OR GAS DIRECTLY ON A HOT WHEEL
OR BRAKE UNIT. THIS CAN CAUSE A TIRE EXPLOSION AND/OR A WHEEL RIM
BURST.

4. Procedure
Ref. Fig. Landing-Gear Brake Units
SUBTASK 32-40-00-210-061-A
A. General Visual Inspection (GVI) of Landing-Gear (L/G) Brake Units
(1) Examine the brake units, as far as you can without removal, for signs of:
- Leakage
- Missing parts (bolts, fasteners,...)
- Cracks
- Wear
- Structural damage
- Corrosion
- Damaged threads
- Chemical oxidation, caused by the chemicals in dry powder fire extinguishers
and/or runway de-icers. This can make the outer surface of the pressure plates
looks soft or porous.
- Thermal oxidation, caused by too much heat. This can make the outer surface of
the carbon stators and/or rotor discs look soft or porous.
(a) If you find missing parts and/or damage, replace the brake Ref. AMM TASK 32-
42-27-000-001 Ref. AMM TASK 32-42-27-400-001.
(b) If you find signs of leakage, find the source of the leakage.
1 Do an inspection of the brake with the wheel installed Ref. AMM TASK 32-
42-27-210-001.
- If the leakage comes from the brake, replace it Ref. AMM TASK 32-
42-27-000-001 Ref. AMM TASK 32-42-27-400-001.
- If the leakage does not come from the brake, find the source of the
leakage and do the necessary repair.
