Replacing the Brake Pads

If the DR® POWERWAGON™ rolls on slopes when the brake is set, and you have tried adjusting the brake (page 14), the brake pads probably need to be replaced.

Tools needed:

•1/2" or adjustable wrench

•(2) 3/8" box, open-end or socket wrenches

•Allen wrench set

•brake pads, set of two (part #110801)

!WARNING: Always disconnect the spark plug wire before servicing your machine.

1.Find a level area to work. The parking brake should NOT be engaged. Chock the wheels so the machine can not move.

2.Locate the brake caliper at the right front of the machine (Figures 27 & 30). Remove the two mounting bolts on the caliper with a 3/8" wrench (Figure 30), then carefully remove the caliper (Figure 31).

Note: The caliper contains four small

parts: the brake pad, the backing plate and two small actuator pins. As you let the caliper hang from its attaching hardware, keep track of these parts—they could fall out.

Clean away any debris from the caliper and associated parts.

3.Pull the brake disk off the spline shaft and remove the old brake pad from behind the disk (Figure 31). Replace it with one of the new pads, then reinstall the brake disk.

4.Put the second new brake pad on the caliper, then reinstall the assembly. Make sure the brake arm is in the upright position and the recessed cut-out on the caliper is facing up with the nameplate to the front. Reinstall the two caliper bolts being careful not to over tighten them.

5.Test the brake: With the machine on a

level surface, set the parking brake and put the machine in neutral. If the brake does

not engage or hold, tighten the brake adjustment nut 1/4 turn with a 1/2" wrench (see page 14).

Note: Check the parking brake periodically and adjust as needed.
