Parking brakes:
It is the responsibility of the machine manufacturer to ensure that parking brakes shall be
fitted with an interlock which prevents the drive power being applied if the brake is not fully
released. Alternatively a control device shall be fitted.
Earthing of brake:
It is necessary for this brake to be earthed to the machine frame
All metal parts of the brake are earth linked and the brake must be mounted to the machine
frame so that electrical resistance is less than 1 megaohm.
The maximum temperature of any power transmission fluid which can be released does not
exceed the maximum surface temperature of the equipment, if this could cause an ignition
risk.
Air compressors used for pneumatic equipment incorporate a filter on the intake system to
prevent the ingress of dust or similar foreign material into the parts where compression takes
place. Air compressors only contain lubricants which are resistant to carbonization.

M 2.1 To ensure the safe and correct operation of the brake the following procedure
must be followed:
1. Ensure all parts are clean and there are no burrs or damaged edges present in the joint
faces.
2. Lubricate threaded section of M30 bolts with Rocol Dry Moly Paste or equivalent.
3. Lubricate M30 hardened washer, both faces, with Rocol Oxylube dry film lubricant or
equivalent.
4. Lubricate the underside of the bolt head with Rocol Oxylube or equivalent.
5. Assemble joint and torque tighten M30 bolts to 1600Nm. Tighten bolts in 180 degree
pattern.
6. Ensure a steady torque tightening action to achieve consistent tightening torque.
7. Re-check M30 bolts for 1600Nm tightening torque in a 180 degree pattern (check each
opposite bolt position until all bolts are checked and no movement of bolt head is seen).
8. Final Check - torque check each bolt at 1600 Nm in a continuous pattern i.e. moving from
one bolt to the bolt next to the one just checked until all 16 bolts are checked.
Alignment Check
Alignment of Hub to the outer ring should be checked to ensure that alignment is within the limits
allowable. Alignment should be as close to zero misalignment as is practically possible and at least be
within a maximum of 1° angular.
If the alignment checks are conducted in the cold condition then any allowance for warm running
offset should be factored into the alignment settings.
All tooling used for maintenance purposes must be suitable for use in explosive atmosphere
environments. No impact tools (e.g. Hammer) may be used for risk of sparks at point of impact.
Insert friction discs and centre plates onto hub and outer ring gear teeth in the same order as packed.
Ensure that each set of the separation springs locate in their counterbores correctly. It is sometimes
necessary to insert a small screwdriver through the friction disc spring holes to check that each spring
is seated correctly.
Use a shim piece to retain the front friction disc in place whilst installing the spring actuator assembly
to the front of the brake. Ensure that the shim is re-aligned once the spring actuator assembly is
engaged on the remaining bolts and torque tightened in place. Outer ring of bolts should be torque
tightened in turn at 180° pattern to ensure that the springs are compressed evenly as the assembly is
clamped in place. Double check all M24 bolts are re- torque tightened to 800 Nm after final assembly.

SS 1 ADJUSTMENT OF CLEARANCE
It is essential for the efficient operation of this type of Wichita brake to have correct clearance.
1. TO SET UP CLEARANCE IF SHIM SETTINGS ARE UNKNOWN
With brake lying on bench or floor, install the outer shims (18) and inner shims (19) so as to leave air
gaps equivalent to dimensions "A" and "C" in TABLE 1 and figure below. Insert capscrews (6) and
(2) and bolt down the complete assembly. Check dimension "D" and "E", the latter by applying air to
the brake and measuring the change in "D". Dimension "D" is the minimum value and the clearance
should be set just above the figure in TABLE 1. Dimension "E" should be set to the minimum value
given in TABLE 1.

IMPORTANT: Never remove all outer bolts at the same time! Add or subtract just one outer shim
segment at any one time (held by 2 bolts).
Note instruction: To ensure the torque capacity does not fall the maximum wear is restricted.
SS 2 GUARDING
Spring Set brakes have ventilation slots in the outer ring (12) which means that access to the rotating
parts is possible. Guards should be used if the position of the brake makes access possible. Do not
restrict the flow of cooling air. Use mesh or slotted guards.
The airtube holding plate (16) moves on engagement in relation to the main body of the brake.
Guarding should be used to prevent fingers being trapped.
SS 3 LUBRICATION
No lubrication is required, although a very light smear of molycote or equivalent graphite grease may
be applied to gear teeth if felt desirable.
SS 5 CLEANING
Since 1988 all Wichita friction material is asbestos free.
Cleaning of a worn brake must not be done by blowing out the dust. Use either vacuum extraction or
a damp cloth for cleaning.

INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Low Inertia Spring Set Brake Model SSM 348/LT/ATEX 16 Bolts
The additional fixing bolts and Bearing Ring are supplied loose with the kit. These fixing bolts replace the
corresponding bolts fitted to the brake.
The Drive Ring Mounting Bracket Assembly should be fitted between the airtube air inlets and should
allow sufficient clearance around any existing pipework etc.
To fit the Drive Ring Mounting Bracket, remove the 4 off M24 x 110mm bolts from the drive ring. Fit the
Drive Ring Mounting Bracket assembly using the supplied M24 x 130 bolts (4 off for Version A and 3 off
for Version B, see page 18) and torque tighten to 800 Nm.
To fit the Bearing Ring, remove the 16 off M30 bolts securing the Airtube Holding Plate and Airtube to
the Brake. Fit the Bearing Ring in the position and orientation shown in the Torque Arm Kit Bearing Ring
View.
Refit the Airtube and Airtube Holding plate to the brake using 12 off M30 bolts and hand tighten. Do not
fit bolts to the 4 off bolt holes adjacent to the Drive Ring Mounting Bracket bolt holes at this point as the
torque arm bush assembly needs to be fitted first.
