2. GENERAL INFORMATION
The use of impact screwdrivers / impact wrenches in conjunction with Knorr-Bremse service tools for air disc brakes
is not permitted. The service tools are not designed for such use.
Never turn the Adjuster (23) without Shear Adapter (61). If the given shear point of the Shear Adapter (61) is
reached, the adapter will fail. Try again using a brand new shear adapter. If the adapter fails a second time, the
whole caliper will need replacing due to internal damage. Do not use an open-ended spanner on the adapter as
this could damage it.
Attention: Risk of injury. Knorr-Bremse accepts no liability for damage or injury resulting from negligence; any
damage to service tools resulting from such actions will void all warranty.

on the usage of the vehicle. The pads should be checked 5.1.1 - Brake pad with minor damage (permitted)
corresponding to any legal requirements that may apply. Even

5.2.1.1 Before starting work, ensure that the wheels are chocked
and the vehicle cannot roll away.
5.2.1.2 Ensure that service brake and parking
brake, as well as bus stop temporary hold brake, if
fitted, are in the released condition.
5.2.1.3 Check the supply pressure of the brake system (should
be > 6.5 bar). Connect an additional external supply to prevent
pressure drop.
5.2.1.4 Jack up the axle and remove the wheel (refer to the x3
respective vehicle /axle manufacturer’s instructions)
5.2.1.5 Check the brake disc temperature, it should be between
-10°C and 50°C.
5.2.2 Push and pull caliper three times in axial direction to 5.2.2 - Push caliper three times in axial direction
assess any existing air gap (see Fig.). If no movement is possible,
clean the disc brake and if necessary, replace the bearings (see
Section 9). Once movement is obtained, continue as follows:

5.2.5 Set the starting gap by turning the adjuster (23) with
the shear adapter (61) backwards and then forwards (note that
when turning backwards a noticeable clicking can be heard
and felt), until a value of 1.3 mm air gap has been achieved 61
(measure between the brake pad and Tappets (13).
5.2.6 Apply the brakes 20x with medium pressure (ca. 2-3
bar). 5.2.3 - 5.2.5 - Remove cap, insert new brake pads, set the starting gap
5.2.7 Check the gap between each of the tappets (13) and
inboard pad backplate (12). This must be measured over the
whole tappet surface of both tappets using two feeler gauges
simultaneously (feeler gauges must be at least 220 mm long)
(see Fig.).
If the gap difference between the two tappets is 22
0m
> 0.25 mm then the caliper bearing clearance must be checked m
(see Section 5.3).
In addition each gap must measure between 0.5 - 1.2 mm.
The minimum tolerance of 0.6 mm is only valid for brakes
unmanufactured after May 2014. For brakes prior to this date, 13
the minimum tolerance can be increased by a further 0.1 mm.

» Pneumatic Disc Brake SB5, SB6, SB7, SB7 Radial
5.2.8 If the air gap is larger than 1.2 mm the adjuster must
be checked as follows:

Note: A new adjuster cap (37) should be fitted even if the brake
pads are not being replaced.

5.3.9 Caliper (1) must slide freely along the whole length of
the guide pin arrangement; movement should be greater than
25 mm. (see Fig.). > 25 mm 1

clockwise until the boots are clearly visible (see Fig).
5.5.3 The rubber boots on the tappets (13) must not have any
cuts/tears or show any other signs of damage (see Fig.).
Check for correct location and fitting.
Note: The penetration of dirt and moisture into the brake will lead
to corrosion and impair the function of the clamping mechanism

not to lose the shear adapter (61) (see Fig. insert). 23 61 37
Do not use any tools to remove the cap (37) as this can
damage the sealing elements of the adjuster.
