This second seminar is a common sense approach to performing a brake job. The participant learns:
To disassemble the wheel end with a complete analytical look at the components
To diagnose wear patterns and component failure to determine air system problems versus foundation problems
Acceptable tolerances and whether or not the component should be reused
Proper wheel bearing inspection procedures with proper installation methods
Proper wheel seal inspection and installation procedures
The identification of self-adjusting slacks and the proper installation of major brands
Proper installation of brake chamber assembly and proper cutting of the push rod and slack mounting, and
Identification of brake shoes and linings used today including the new generation of extended service FSMI numbers
All methods and procedures are demonstrated in a training environment using working models. Attendees receive a certificate of achievement upon conclusion of this course.
