WAGON MAINTENANCE MANUAL<br />

Procedure for replacing worn out brake heads is as under;<br />

Page 11 of 121<br />

i. Remove split pin and washer from brake beam end. Remove pin<br />

securing brake shoe adjuster with brake beam by removing split<br />

pin.<br />

ii. Take brake heads out of brake beam along with brake shoe<br />

adjuster.<br />

iii. Disengage brake shoe adjuster from brake head by providing bolt<br />

after disengaging split pin, nut cover, spring and adjusting piece.<br />

iv. Assemble new brake head with brake shoe adjuster by using<br />

items mentioned in para ( C) as shown in RDSO Drawing No.<br />

WD-88012-S/1.<br />

v. Slide new brake head assembled with brake shoe adjuster on<br />

brake beam end. Engage brake shoe adjuster with brake beam<br />

by using pin and split pin as shown in RDSO Drawing No.<br />

WD-88012-S/1.<br />

vi. Further secure brake heads on brake beam end by putting washer<br />

and split pin as shown in RDSO Drawing No WD-85054-S/4.<br />

III) CASNUB 22 NL, 22NLB & 22HS Bogie<br />

Brake head is integrally cast with end piece casting, which is<br />

welded with structural steel brake beam channel and Truss flat at ends<br />

as shown in RDSO Drawing No WD-89033-S/1. Depending upon the<br />

extent of wear, worn out brake heads can either be built up by welding<br />

or worn out brake heads can be replaced by new brake head.<br />

601 C. REPAIR <strong>AND</strong> MAINTENANCE IN SICK LINE<br />

In order to obtain optimum life from the bogie, it is desirable to maintain the<br />

various clearances within recommended limits. Prescribed clearances are given in<br />

para 601 E.<br />

a. Due to wear of the mating components, increase in clearances should be<br />

monitored. Whenever the component reaches the condemning limits, repairs<br />

should be undertaken for either building up the wear on such surfaces or<br />

changing their liner, as the case may be.<br />

b. Due to the wear in bolster/side frame liners and wedge surface, the wedges<br />

shall move upwards. If the holes of bolster pocket wall and wedges starts<br />

crossing, repair shall be under taken. The gauge shall be used for determining<br />

the wear.<br />

c. The class of electrode, gauge of electrode, welding current and welding<br />

precautions to be taken while repairing the surfaces by welding.
