ROTORS

Determine the need to recondition based upon individual rotor

conditions that follow. Friction material replacement does not require

rotor reconditioning unless other justifications exist. DO NOT

recondition new rotors unless they are being pressed or bolted onto an

existing hub. It is not necessary to replace rotors in axle sets.

However, when replacing or reconditioning a rotor due to the

conditions that follow, you may suggest reconditioning of the other

rotor on the same axle to eliminate uneven braking behavior.

Determine the need to replace based upon the individual rotor

conditions that follow. Reconditioning is defined as machining and

block sanding, or block sanding only. Block sanding is defined as

using 120-150 grit sandpaper with moderate to heavy force for 60

seconds per side. Always wash rotors after servicing or before

installing.

ROTOR INSPECTION

Condition Code Procedure

Corrosion affecting

structural integrity ... A . . (1) Require replacement.

Cracked . . . . . B . . . Require replacement.

Hard spots . . . .. 2 . ... Suggest reconditioning or

replacement of rotor according

to OEM specifications.
