Here are the adjustment methods for insufficient brake torque: 1. Tighten the locking nut, then rotate the compression nut clockwise to compress the spring until the distance L3045mm is achieved. 2. Press the brake push rod with one hand, and use the other hand to rotate the push rod bolt so that the gap between it and the brake push rod is between 11.5mm. Adjust the other side using the same method. 3. Connect the power supply as required and open the brake to allow the brake wheel to rotate freely. 4. Operate the traction machine in both forward and reverse directions, then momentarily activate the brake switch. Observe the inverter's current value during the braking moment to see if the braking current is twice the rated current, and adjust the compression nut accordingly based on the actual value. 5. After adjusting the torque, tighten the locking nuts on both sides. 6. With the brake open and the traction machine running, slowly rotate the push rod bolt counterclockwise while carefully listening until the brake lining lightly touches the brake wheel. Then, slowly rotate the push rod bolt clockwise by approximately 90-120 degrees and tighten the push rod locking nut.

What is the Drive Axle Generally Composed Of

Drive axle is generally composed of components such as the main reducer, differential, axle shafts, and axle housing. Additional Information: 1. Functions of the Drive Axle: Transmit the engine torque from the universal drive assembly to the driving wheels through the main reducer, differential, and axle shafts, achieving speed reduction and torque increase. The direction of torque transmission is altered via the bevel gears of the main reducer. 2. Classification of Drive Axles: (1) Non-independent Type: The non-independent drive axle, also known as a solid axle, is used when the driving wheels employ a non-independent suspension system. (2) Independent Type: When an independent suspension is used, where the main reducer housing is fixed to the frame and the axle shafts and driving wheels on both sides can move relative to the vehicle body in the transverse plane, it is referred to as an independent drive axle.

Why is the brake pedal hard to press and the car won't start?

When the brake pedal is hard to press, the specific cause depends on whether the vehicle can start normally. If it can start, this braking issue is usually caused by vacuum booster pressure leakage, which typically results from a damaged one-way valve in the vacuum booster. Replacing the vacuum booster's one-way valve can solve the problem. Here are some braking techniques: Emergency braking: Some vehicles are not equipped with ABS. For such vehicles, it is not recommended to apply full braking force at once. Instead, press the brake pedal twice in succession to prevent wheel lock-up, which could lead to skidding or loss of steering control. Braking in rainy conditions: When driving on wet roads, avoid slamming the brake pedal or turning the steering wheel abruptly. After passing through waterlogged areas, it's advisable to gently press the brake pedal twice to utilize inertia and friction to remove water from the brake discs, preventing brake failure during sudden braking.

Why is the windshield still blurry after the wipers wipe during rain?

The reasons for a blurry windshield after wiper operation are: skipping during wiping; aging or hardening of the wiper blades; foreign objects trapped between the wiper and windshield; or asymmetrical wiper arm angles. Relevant information about wipers is as follows: Introduction: Wipers, also known as windshield wipers, are devices used to wipe away raindrops and dust attached to the vehicle's windshield, improving the driver's visibility and enhancing driving safety. Usage Method: On rainy days, when raindrops fall on the window glass, the view ahead quickly becomes obstructed, making vehicles, pedestrians, and scenery appear blurred. At this point, activating the wipers will restore clear visibility ahead.

How to Replace the Air Conditioning Filter in the Vezel?

Here are the steps to replace the air conditioning filter in the Vezel: 1. First, locate the glove box of the Vezel and press it inward. 2. Press down the left-side damping hook and open the cover outside the air conditioning filter. 3. Pay attention to the installation direction and then install the new car air conditioning filter. Below is relevant information about the air conditioning filter: 1. The general filtering materials refer to impurities in the air, including tiny particles, pollen, bacteria, industrial exhaust, and dust. 2. The function of the air conditioning filter is to prevent such substances from entering the air conditioning system, damaging the system, and providing a good air environment for the passengers inside the car. 3. It protects the health of the car occupants and also prevents glass fogging, so it needs to be replaced regularly.

What gear should be used for uphill driving with a manual-automatic transmission?

When driving uphill with a manual-automatic transmission, you can switch to manual mode and then select 1st or 2nd gear to maintain a stable engine speed above 3000 RPM for climbing. Below is relevant information: 1. A manual-automatic transmission combines the manual and automatic shifting modes of a car. The manual mode allows you to freely adjust gears and engine speed, providing a thrilling and sporty driving experience, full of driving pleasure. 2. An automatic transmission significantly reduces the impact of manual shifting on the car's drivetrain, thereby extending the vehicle's lifespan and improving ride comfort. It can select the appropriate gear based on road conditions, ensuring the engine operates under optimal conditions. For cars frequently navigating complex road conditions, it allows the driver to avoid frequent clutch engagement and gear shifting, reducing driver fatigue.
