• Measure the distance from the centerline of the clevis pinto the face of the brake chamber can. (Should be 2.25 inches) Record the dimension.
• with a bar pull the chamber pushrod until it stops and measure the distance again from the centerline of the clevis pin to the face of the brake
chamber can. Record the dimension.
• Subtract the first measurement from the second. It should be 0.5 to 0.625 inches.
• If not in that range, remove the clevis pins connecting the slack to the brake chamber clevis and adjust the slack to the brake chamber centerline
per the suppliers maintenance document.After properly adjusting the slack to the brake chamber clevis pin hole centerline, at 2.25 inches,
reinstall the clevis pins and clips.
• After the pins are reinstalled, adjust the brake shoe to drum clearance with the suppliers maintenance document. (Tighten till drum won’t turn,
then back off adjuster a 1/2 turn, check for free rotation).

Have an assistant apply and release the service brake. Check that brake releases completely
Lubricate the S-Cam tube until grease is noted to be flowing out around the entire circumference of the chamber end of the S-Cam tube.
If the brake does not release completely or is "grabby" repair of the S-Cam and bushing is required.
Proper repair would consist of replacement of the S-Cam bushing and buffing any rust off of the S-Cam with emery cloth. The S-Cam is reusable
if not badly pitted.
Reassemble the S-Cam assembly per the suppliers maintenance document.
