mileage is experienced earlier inspection and
adjustment may be necessary.
Note that travel of more than 60% of total overrun
device shaft movement is indicative that brake
adjustment is required.
Steel spring axle maintenance - taper roller bea-
ring
- Grease the 4 lubrication nipples of the steel spring
axle every 5 000 km.
(Grease: Kluber Costrac GI 1501)
- Otherwise maintenance is as for standard axle.
"Running or dead axle" maintenance
After 1 500 km or 6 months
- have the axial play of the hub bearing checked
and adjusted, if necessary.
- With boat trailers which are driven into water or
sea water the hub bearing should be re-greased
shortly after contact with the water (with the
exception of waterproof hubs).
Maintenance and care of galvanized vehicle
parts
The formation of white rust is only a blemish and
can never be excluded completely. The following
measures are necessary to minimise this as far as
possible.
• Ensure an adequate air circulation during storage.
• Clean the galvanised surfaces with clear water
(e.g. steam clean) after journeys in winter.
• Re-grease and/or oil joints and bearing points!

Spare parts
Spare parts are sefety critical parts! For this reason
when fitting spare parts in our products we recom-
mend the use of original AL-KO parts or those parts
that we have explicity approved. The reliability,
safety and suitability of parts designed especially for
our products, has been determinded using a special
est procedure. In spine of constantly monitoring the
market we are unable to assess or vouch for other
products.
If repair work or servicing is required AL-KO have a
large network of AL-KO service stations throughout
Europe. A list of service centres can be requested
Troubleshooting
Fault
Cause
Poor braking
Linings are not fully bedded in.
Linings are damaged/dirty
Friction losses too high, overrun
device shaft corroded.
Reversing heavy or blocked
Only occurs when the braking system
is set too tightly.
Auto-reverse lever is stuck.
Brakes overheating when driving
Incorrect setting.
Braking system not fully released during
forward travel.
Overrun lever stuck.
Wheel brake dirty.
Cable or Bowden cable kinked.
Release springs defective or broken.
Rust deposit in brake drum(s).
Handbrake force low
Incorrect setting - friction losses too great.
Linings are not run in.
Friction losses too high.
Uncomfortable ride or
Too much play in the braking system.
jerky braking
Shock absorber defective
direct if required. Please bear in mind that repairs
should only be carried out by trained and qualified
workshops/personnel.
To establish the correct spare parts required for
your axle you should always quote the axle type
(axle identification plate) and spare part identificati-
on number (ETI No.). This is imprinted on the wheel
brake or on the identification plate. Please establish
both these details before contacting AL-KO or its
agents.
Elimination
Will pass after braking a few times.
Have set replaced.
Ensure smooth action of transmission
equipment including brake cable.
Re-adjust braking system.
Restore to working order and lubricate.
Check brake adjustment.
Release hand-brake. Check transmission
equipment (ensure smooth action).
Check overrun lever.
Clean.
Renew Bowden cable.
Renew springs.
Replace brake drum(s) and shoes, if necessary.
Check setting.
Will pass after braking a few times.
Ensure smooth action of transmission equip-
ment including Bowden cable. (Oil)
Check setting.
Have shock absorber checked and if neces-
sary change.
