Braked trailer (KNOTT): replacing brake shoes, wheel bearing, adjusting

This Brake fixing project took me almost 2 months. Measuring, replacing, some mistakes, dismantling again, seized cable, worn out bearing...
No way I am teaching how to do. I just show all my mistakes and successes.

Excellent example of problem solving and ingenuity. Well done, an inspiration.

[@Dasiukas]

Thank you! Your good words is inspiration for me!

[@erstermaat5245]

Good and informative repair tutorial, nice idea to use the car jack as a press to push the bearings in the break drums.
Good job👍

[@Dasiukas]

Thank you!

[@lauralauren6432]

The best video for amateurs as myself. Thank You

[@Dasiukas]

Thank you!

[@terriwalker6705]

Thank you so very much! I'm in the US and have similar brakes on my horse trailer; there's no one in my area willing to work on a European trailer, so I'll have to do the work myself. You made things very clear and I think I will be able to do the work myself.

[@Dasiukas]

Thank you! Glad you find it to be helpful. Maybe you'll be interested in videos on overrun damper repair on my trailer too: th-cam.com/video/W8Um_kAzR3E/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/PgGIM6Z-dlA/w-d-xo.html

Hi there my Horse Friend , my girlfriend has also a horse and I restore an old german horse trailer from 1984 made by " Julius Landwehr "
Whats your horse trailers Brand?
Popular in europe are Boeckmann, Cheval liberte, Humbaur, Ifor Williams, Sirius, Woermann and some more.
All that trailers have often breaks and axles made by Knott, Schlegel or Al-Ko.
There are many tutorial videos about on TH-cam. Some videos are made by the manufactures itself, knott for example.
Best wishes and a nice summer time

Sveiki kaip turi buti isdestytas teisingai ratu stabdymas asims ar visi ratai stabdo vaziuojant i prieki ar viena asis stabo vaziuojant atga kita kap i priekil?

[@Dasiukas]

Labas. Visi ratai stabdo tik į priekį. Atgal padaryta, kad nestabdytų. Tik reikia teisingai sumontuoti, nesumaišyti.

[@mikaeljonsson4686]

Ohhh, you should NEVER press on the inner ring on the bearing when pressing in a new one, as you put a lot of force on the bearing itself and will not last long after that. The outer steel ring should take the force when pressing it in. At least it looks like you are pressing on the inner part of the bearing.

[@Dasiukas]

Thank you for your notice. I’ve been using the old bearing to push the new one further on. Pushing the outer ring. Some force could go to the inner too though. Anyway that wheel is okay for the second season already

[@thomtrucker1925]

Springs must be fitted from behind not like you did from front

[@Dasiukas]

Yes. I realised that later and refited.

[@pauliusser]

4:47 did you had enough pee to cool down the other two wheels on the other side of the trailer? :D

[@Dasiukas]

Unfortunately... Just for one side was enough...

[@pauliusser]

​@@Dasiukas then you should drink more water to stay hydrated because you never know when you need to extinguish the fire :D

[@Dasiukas]

I've better fixed my brakes instead ;)
