The precautions for using composite brake pads on buses include the following:

Pre installation inspection:

Before installing composite brake pads,the surfaces of the brake pads and brake discs should be carefully inspected to ensure that there are no oil stains,dust,or other impurities.

Confirm that the model and specifications of the brake pads match the vehicle requirements.

Installation process:

Install the brake pads correctly according to the manufacturer's instruction manual,ensuring that all fasteners are securely fastened in place.

After installation,a preliminary manual inspection should be conducted to ensure even clearance between the brake pads and brake discs.

Break in period:

The newly replaced composite brake pads need to go through a break in period to achieve the best braking effect.During this period,sudden braking and prolonged continuous braking should be avoided.

During the break in period,pay attention to observing the braking effect and the wear of the brake pads.

Daily inspection and maintenance:

Regularly check the thickness of the brake pads,and replace them promptly when the wear reaches the minimum allowable thickness.

Check for cracks,detachment,or other damage to the brake pads,and replace them immediately if there are any issues.

Keep the braking system clean to prevent dust and foreign objects from affecting braking performance.

Usage environment:

Avoid prolonged use in extreme temperature,humidity,or corrosive environments,as these conditions may accelerate the aging and wear of the brake pads.

When driving on rainy or slippery roads,be aware that the braking distance may increase.

Driving habits:

Develop good driving habits and avoid frequent sudden braking to reduce brake pad wear.

On long downhill sections,engine braking should be used to assist in deceleration and reduce reliance on brake pads.

Replacement cycle:

Develop a reasonable brake pad replacement cycle based on the frequency of vehicle usage and driving conditions.

Do not use severely worn brake pads beyond the deadline to avoid affecting driving safety.

Following the above precautions can ensure the normal use of composite brake pads on buses,extend their service life,and ensure driving safety.
