Before remounting, grease with grease the attachment screws of the rear axle shock
absorber bottom and the chassis, consequently, the connecting screws rear a xle-c hassis. Line up the arm s beari ngs right to t he c hassis supports, mounting them without t ighten-
ing at the moment, the nuts with the screws, assembling the axle to the chassis.
Remount the springs.
Compress the axle so that rear springs bear on the tray and set back the shock absorber
inner attachment screws. Tighten at the prescribed moment the connecting screws.
Perform the dismounting operations in the reverse order.
Check the maximum allowed axial cleara nce of the bearing using a dial gauge and the
s upport RO541A.
Note
The maximum allowed axle clearance of the bearing is 0.05mm.
Mount the rear wheels, lower t he vehicle on the ground.
Refill with fluid the brake assembly.
Pu rge the braking system.

implies the same opera tion for t he other one.
SPECIAL TOOLS
DISMOUNTING
Extract the plug out of the drum using the
extracting pliers RO441.
Release the hand bra ke, loosening the sec-
ondary cables in order t o allow the hand brake
lever re turn. Pass a screwdriver through the wheel at-
tachment whole from the drum and operate
on the brake lever sector loosening the its
gearing with the hand brake lever. Dismount:
- the steering knuckle nut and washer;
- the drum using PF600 extractor.
REMOUNTING
Clean the drum and the brake plate assembly by means of a cleaner (vacuum cleaner)
for brake. Place back:
- the drum;
- the steering knuckle washer and nut tightening them at the re quired moment;
- the drum plug.
A djust:
- the shoes by applying a repeated pressure to the brake pedal;
- hand brake ( see chapter 37-“Controls”).

DISMOUNTING
With the vehicle placed on an elevator

- the wheel;
- the drum plug;
- brake drum;
- upper spring of shoes return, using
pliers FR03.
Space the brake shoes.
Unscrew: - the rigid piping connection on the brake
cylinder by means of an open-end wrench; - the two attachment screws of the
brake cylinder on t he brake plate, loosen-
ing the connection. Check the condition of the shoes brake gas-
kets; if oi l tra ces are present, replace them.
REMOUNTING
Clean t he drums and the brake shoes as-
sembly by means of a cleaner (vacuum
cleaner) for brake. Perform in re verse order t he dismounting
operations. Purge the braking system (see chapter 38).

REPAIRING
DISMOUNTING
Di smount the bra ke cylinder off the vehicle;
Di smount:
- the purging screw;
- the protection bellows;
- the Ö22 pistons assembled with the pressure ga skets.
Check the condition of the cylinder boring, any trace of wear, oxidation or scratches
implies the re placement of the assembled bra ke cylinder.
If the cylinder components are in a good condition, lubri cate them with brake fluid and
mount them in the reverse order of dismounting. Check the easy moving of the assembled pistons in the cylinder boring.
Mount the brake cylinder on the plate;
Mount the wheel brake drum .
Check the adjustment of t he hand bra ke.

BRAKE SHOES
DISMOUNTING
The re placement of brake shoes must
be performed in complete set, never mount
the brake shoes equipped with brake
linings of different brands and qualities. Dismount :
- t he brake drum ( see t he corre -
sponding paragraph); - the two m aintenance springs (R)
of the shoes with a brake cylinder rod (T). By means of the pliers FR05A the brake
cylinder pistons are immobilized. Remove t he return upper spri ng of the
shoes using the pliers FR03. Release the end of t he ha nd brake cable
off the hand brake lever.

A –A ICP assembly section
OPERATIONA. B RAKING
THE FRONT BRAKE CIRCUIT
The primary piston is controlled by the pushing rod. A part of the brake fluid under pressur e
will operate together with the spring on the secondary piston, and the other part of the brake flui d
shall penetrate through the ducts to the upper floor towards both exits leading to the front brak e
calipers.
THE REAR BRAKE CIRCUIT
The secondary piston is continuing its movement, conducting the brake fluid under pressure ,
through the ducts, to the upper floor, towards the exit to the pressure-reducing valve. During al l
this time, the linings-pistons assembly will be balanced due to the two side springs .

B. DE-BRAKING
After effort ending, the two pistons resume their initial position under the effect of the retainer
springs, while the fluid is coming back and the pressure is decreasing in both circuits.
PRIMARY CIRCUIT – PRESSURE LOOSING
Lack of pressure in the primary circuit leads to the following situation :
The primary piston is a dvancing up to the pin, so is controlling mechanically the secondary
piston. The secondary piston reaches a fluid pressure that shall operate on the piston – linings
assembly moving it t o the right, opening also t he second e xit of t he rear circ uit ( the by-pass
circuit) increasing the pressure for this circuit. In this moment, by means of the transducer, the warning light on the instrument panel is on.
SECONDARY CIRCUIT – PRESSURE LOOSING
Both pump pistons go on. The caliper cylinders of the front brake shall normally operate.
The secondary piston re aches its respective pi n, but the pre ssure will decrease (due to the
failure). BRAKE PUMP
