General Information
DANGER: Avoid creating dust possible cancer and lung
!
disease hazard
While Dana does not offer asbestos brake linings, the long-term effects of some non-asbestos fibers have not been determined. Current OSHA Regulations cover exposure levels to some components of non-asbestos linings but not all. The following precautions must be used when handling these materials.
1. AVOID CREATING DUST. Compressed air or dry brushing must never be used for cleaning brake assemblies or the work area.
2. DANA RECOMMENDS THAT WORKERS DOING BRAKE WORK MUST TAKE STEPS TO MINIMIZE EXPOSURE TO AIRBORNE BRAKE LINING PARTICLES. Proper procedures to reduce exposure include working in a well ventilated area, segregation of areas where brake work is done, use of local filtered ventilation systems or use of enclosed cells with filtered vacuums. Respirators approved by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) or National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) should be worn at all times during brake servicing.
3. Workers must wash before eating, drinking or smoking; shower after working, and should not wear work clothes home. Work clothes should be vacuumed and laundered separately without shaking.
4. OSHA Regulations regarding testing, disposal of waste and methods of reducing exposure for asbestos are set forth in 29 Code of Federal Regulations §1910.001. These Regulations provide valuable information which can be utilized to reduce exposure to airborne particles.
5. Material safety data sheets on this product, as required by OSHA, are available from Dana.

3. On drive axles, remove stud nuts and axle shafts. If used, remove Iockwashers and taper dowels. If necessary, loosen dowels by holding a brass drift in the center of the shaft head and striking it a sharp blow with a hammer. On trailer and steer axles, remove hub cap.
WARNING: Do not strike the axle shaft flange with a
!
hammer. Do not use chisels or wedges to loosen shaft or dowels.
4. Remove axle spindle nut(s) and washer.
5. While rocking drum, pull outboard enough to allow removal of outer wheel bearing.
6. Remove drum by pulling outboard while rocking from side to side. If shoes are not clear of drum, return to Step 2 above.

!
drum. Excessive pulling force may damage brake components.
