Lithium soap-based EP2 grease.
At 3,000 miles (5,000 km) >
Check same as first 300 miles (500 km). Check wear pattern of brake linings, if not

Lubricate all grease points. Check hubs for bearing end-float. Adjust as necessary.
Lubricate slack adjusters. Check brake linings for wear.
At 30,000 miles (50,000 km) and every 30,000 miles thereafter >
Remove hubs, check brake linings for wear, check anchor pins for sticking (remove and re-
