TE9000 / 93000 Service Introduction to the TE9000 & TE9300 Series Axles The TE9000 & TE9300 series axles are manufactured to the same high standards as the well established TM series axles. In fact, much of the materials and manufacturing processes are common to both axle series. The TE series axle has been designed with low weight and low cost of ownership in mind, and is intended for use in predominantly tri-axle applications, running on super single tyres at combined bogie weights up to 27 tonne.
TE9000 / 93000 Service Maintenance Schedule For suspension service intervals and maintenance procedures refer to the relevant suspension manual. Specific service intervals must be determined by each fleet operator according to duty and experience. However, the following are minimum requirements. BEFORE ENTERING SERVICE Check brake adjustment. Torque check all wheel nuts. 160 km Torque check all wheel nuts. 1600 km Torque check all wheel nuts. 3 MONTHLY Torque check all wheel nuts. Check brake adjustment.
TE9000 / 93000 Service SECTION 1 Service Procedures Straighten locking tab on tab washer using hammer and chisel (fig. 2). Remove axle end nut (55mm A/F), and tab washer (fig. 3). Install wheel dolly. Axle annual service and service after 3 years or 300,000 Km The following step by step instruction details the essential operations required for these services. The 3 year service is in effect the same as the annual service with additional work on the hub and bearing assembly.
TE9000 / 93000 Service Install hub puller (Meritor part no. 21221512) and dismount hub, drum and wheel assembly (fig. 4). Remove hub, drum and wheel assembly and plug the inner bearing bore with a clean cloth. FIG. 4 3. REMOVE BRAKE SHOES IMPORTANT: If the brake linings do not need to be replaced, mark the brake shoes before removing them to ensure that they will be reassembled to the same brake in the same position. Release retainer springs using screwdriver or similar tool (fig. 5). FIG. 6 4.
TE9000 / 93000 Service 5. CLEAN ANCHOR PIN BUSHES, ANCHOR BRACKET AND CAM HEAD clips from the cam rollers and inspect for damage to the retaining tabs, if they have cracked, broken off or failed to spring out the clip it must be replaced. Using a wire brush, clean each side of the anchor bracket in the area of anchor pins, clean the bore of the anchor pin bushes, if necessary using emery cloth. 8.
TE9000 / 93000 Service 13. INSPECTION OF CAMSHAFTS AND CAMSHAFT BEARINGS FOR PLAY Place a lever between the camshaft and axle beam close to the cam head bearing and lever up and down to detect free play (fig. 9). This should not be more than ±0.5mm at the bush (the amount at the lever will depend on the lever length so discretion and judgement is required).
TE9000 / 93000 Service If the hub has been removed from the axle, clean any debris from the locating faces on the anchor and cam brackets and fasten both bearings in place with the M10 screws. Do not fully tighten at this stage. Pass the camshaft through the head bearing and slide the rubber boots onto the camshaft. Push the spline end through the spline end bearing. A hard tap on the cam head end will be required to locate the spring clip into the camshaft groove.
TE9000 / 93000 Service 17. GREASE CAMSHAFT BEARINGS Grease camshaft bearings using grease gun (fig. 14), it is possible to see the grease extrude from the side plates of the camshaft head bearings with the hub and drum removed. Ensure the correct specification of grease is used. If the oil seal has remained on the spindle journal lever it off taking great care not to damage the spindle. Clean the area around the oil seal journal as detailed in paragraph 6. Discard the oil seal.
TE9000 / 93000 Service Inspect the rollers, bearing cage and raceway for damage and debris. Re-grease the inner bearing to supplement the grease lost during the removal of the oil seal. Be certain to work the grease deep into the cage and rollers. Check the raceway for any damage before the inner bearing cone is replaced. Press the inner bearing fully home into the cup as this helps the location of the oil seal driver. Fit the oil seal onto the driver (Meritor Part No.
TE9000 / 93000 Service Dry the bearings of any solvent used for cleaning the bearings. Thoroughly re-pack the inner and outer bearings with grease. Work the grease deep into the rollers with your hands until the cages are solid packed with grease. Always place greased bearings in a clean area and protect from falling debris. Press the inner bearing fully home into the cup. (This helps the location of the oil seal driver.) Fit the oil seal onto the driver (Meritor Part No.
TE9000 / 93000 Service 23. LUBRICATE BRAKE CHAMBER CLEVIS PIN ASSEMBLY Lubricate the clevis pin assembly from both sides with oil, and make sure the brake can be operated easily by pulling the slack adjuster by hand. 24. ADJUST BRAKES MANUAL SLACK ADJUSTERS: Using the manual adjustment nut on the slack adjuster adjust the brake until the wheel can not be turned by hand. Back off brake until it is just possible to freely turn the wheel without resistance from the brake linings.
TE9000 / 93000 Service SECTION 2 Additional Procedures After 3 years or 300,000 km REMOVAL AND REFITTING OF WHEEL BOLTS With the hub removed from the axle, support it by placing blocks under the wheel flange. Using the wheel bolt removal tool (21205455) drive out the wheel bolts (fig. 20). FIG. 21 FITTING OF THE POLE WHEEL FIG. 20 To replace wheel bolts, turn the hub over, oil seal end upwards, and support the hub on the brake drum aligning the holes in both hub and drum.
TE9000 / 93000 Service The mounting block is fixed to the beam using a screw (21221521) tightened to 25/35 Nm. During tightening of the screw move the block from side to side so that it is correctly seated and is within ±2.5° to the wheel axis. The sensor assembly may be rotated in the mounting block to allow the cable to pass either side of the anchor bracket. Pass the sensor cable through the dust cover using the uppermost hole and fit grommet (21220842).
TE9000 / 93000 Service The hubodometer is best assembled with the hub cap off the axle. Place the hub cap on a clean, flat surface. Fit the nut to spanner (fig. 25) and using a small amount of grease locate the washer on the nut. REMOVAL AND REFITTING OF BRAKE DRUM The brake drum can be separated from the hub after removal of the road wheel as follows. Remove the two countersunk drum retaining screws from the drum flange face using a 10mm Allen key (fig. 27). FIG.
TE9000 / 93000 Service REMOVAL AND FITTING OF ANTILOCK EQUIPMENT All TE axles are provided with a means of fitting antilock equipment. Every hub has a machined spigot to locate the pole wheel and axle beams are plain drilled for self tapping bolt to allow the fitting of the sensor mounting block (fig. 29). It is important that the correct bolt is used. ITEM A B C D E DESCRIPTION Pole Wheel Sensor Bracket Spring Bush Screw & Spring Washer Sensor Assembly C PART NO.
