AH42.10-P-9406-14A
    Brake disks (1) with a cast iron friction ring are OK; the current brake pads can still be used, do not install any new brake pads onto the brake disk (1) with cast iron friction ring.
If none of the three wear bores are visible,

replace brake disks (1) with a cast iron friction ring.
IMPORTANT After obtaining special order.
If, in exceptional cases, assessment of the brake disks (1) with a cast iron friction ring is not possible through a visual check,

check condition of brake disks (1) with a cast iron friction ring.
IMPORTANT After obtaining special order.

If, in exceptional cases, assessment of the brake disks (1) with a cast iron friction ring is not possible through a visual check,

check condition of brake disks (1) with a cast iron friction ring.
IMPORTANT After obtaining special order.
