    NOTICE
    Do not use an impact wrench to tighten or loosen the bolts on the bearing preload adjuster. The vibration of an impact tool can damage the digital indicators and/or cause incorrect indicator readings. Always use hand tools to tighten or loosen the bolts on the bearing preload adjuster.

    2. Use a suitable lifting device in order to position the preload adjuster onto the base plate. The weight of the preload adjuster is approximately 150 kg (330 lb). The weight of the base plate is approximately 191 kg (420 lb).

    3. Lubricate the threads of the bolts. Install the bolts and tighten to a torque of 339 N·m (250 lb ft) in a diagonal pattern by one quarter turn at a time.

    Illustration 12	g02142423

    5. Loosen the bolts by one quarter turn at a time in a diagonal pattern. Loosen the bolts until all of the bolts are no longer threaded into the base plate.

    6. Clean the threads that are in the spindle. Use a suitable lifting device in order to install the preload adjuster onto the spindle. The weight of the preload adjuster is approximately 150 kg (330 lb).

    7. Install the bolts. Tighten the bolts to a torque of 339 N·m (250 lb ft) in a diagonal pattern by one quarter turn at a time.

    8. Use Tooling (H) in order to release the parking brake. Do not exceed 4150 kPa (602 psi).

    9. Rotate the wheel by a minimum of three revolutions.

    10. Record the measurement from each of the dial indicators and average the measurements. Record the average measurement as Dimension (X) .

    11. Remove Tooling (H) .

        Note: Relieve the pressure in the parking brake before Tooling (H) is removed. Failure to relieve the pressure could result in injury or death to personnel in the area

    1. Install retainer (9) . Install seven of bolts (8) , equally spaced.

       Note: Do not install the shims at this time.

    2. Use Tooling (H) in order to release the parking brake. Do not exceed 4150 kPa (602 psi).

    3. Tighten bolts (8) to a torque of 50 N·m (37 lb ft) in a cross pattern while rotating the wheel at least three revolutions. Loosen bolts (8) . Rotate the wheel three revolutions. The opposite bolts are to be tightened as retightening progresses around the bolts circle, and all bolts must stabilize at the specified torque. Retighten bolts (8) to a torque of 20 N·m (15 lb ft) while rotating the wheel, and then tighten bolts (8 ) to a torque of 30 ± 5 N·m (22 ± 4 lb ft) while rotating the wheel.

    4. Use Tooling (J) in order to measure the distance from the top of the retainer (9) to the end of the spindle at two locations. Average the two measurements and record the result as Dimension (A) .

    5. Remove Tooling (H) .

       Note: Relieve the pressure in the parking brake before Tooling (H) is removed. Failure to relieve the pressure could result in injury or death to personnel in the area

    6. Remove bolts (8) and retainer (9) .

    7. Use Tooling (K) in order to measure the thickness of retainer (9) at three locations. Average the three measurements. Record the result as Dimension (B) . Subtract Dimension (B) from Dimension (A) . Record the result as Dimension (C) .
