MAINTENANCE
Caution: Before attempting to service or remove
any components, make certain that the power is
disconnected and that the load is completely
removed, secured or blocked to prevent injury or
property damage.
Wear Adjustment
Caution: Load to be removed or blocked. Brake may
be inoperative during this procedure.
Before air gap "A" reaches .100", adjustment is
required. Any delay in adjusting the magnet air gap
will result in eventual loss of torque.
Refer to Figure 6.
1. Remove cover to expose square head wear adjusting
screws (15H) and expose magnet air gap "A."
2. Measure air gap "A" using 3/8" to 1/2" wide feeler
gauge. (Measure at center of magnet.) Air gap
must be the same on both sides of magnet.
3. Turn two square head adjusting screws (15H) until
air gap "A" measures:
4. Replace cover, sealing washers and cover screws.

Torque Adjustment
Caution: Load to be removed or blocked. Brake may
be inoperative during this procedure.
The magnetic disc brake is factory set for rated static
torque. The brake can be adjusted to reduce torque
which increases stopping time. Do not attempt to adjust
brake for higher torque, as this will cause premature
coil burnout.
Refer to Figure 7.
1. To adjust, remove cover to expose torque locknuts
(15T), which are above torque springs (15S).
2. To increase stopping time and reduce torque, turn
both torque locknuts counterclockwise, increasing
spring length. Each full turn reduces torque 7% to
10% depending on the model.
NOTE: Maximum spring length is 1.2". At
maximum length reduced torque will be:
