            0

Install the brake pads as follows:



Pic. 260. Lubrication points with composition for heated bearings

- lightly lubricate with the composition for heated bearings indicated in fig. 260 brake pad contact points;

- lubricate the rotation points and threads of the adjusting pusher with the same lubricant;

- if the pads are replaced, then a new rear pad is supplied with a lever for the parking brake, which is riveted on the pad, lubricate the hinge points well before installing the pads, remove excess grease;



Pic. 261. Installing the brake shoe: 1 — parking brake cable

- set the pressure bar with the regulator to passive (wrung out) brake shoe and attach cable 1 (pic. 261) parking brake to the lever, as shown in the figure;


- when installing the brake shoes, install the return springs in the shoes according to their original position and place the shoes on the brake shield plate;

- insert the ends of the block into the supports on the back side;

- carefully insert the other end of the pad into the piston slot with a screwdriver (first remove the rubber strip), while trying not to damage the protective plug of the cylinder;

- Center the brake pads on the brake shield plate;

- install the anchor pins, for which press the pin from behind, compress and insert the spring and turn the pin head 90º to protect the part;

- Establish a brake drum; if the drum does not fit, then bring the self-regulator through the gearing to bring the pads together, to do this, put a screwdriver on the adjusting element and hit it with your palm;

- make a test drive: brake the car several times so that the mechanism runs in, and then apply the parking brake. In this case, clicking sounds may appear in the brakes, which indicate self-adjusting the brakes. If the sounds no longer appear, the brakes are adjusted properly.
