2. Important Safety Instructions
When using this equipment, basic safety precautions should always be followed, includ-
ing the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Care must be taken as burns can occur from touching hot parts.
3. Do not operate equipment with a damaged cord or if the equipment has been dropped
or damaged until it has been examined by a qualified service person.
4. Do not let a cord hang over the edge of the table, bench, or counter or come in con-
tact with hot manifolds or moving fan blades.
5. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating equal to or more than
that of the equipment should be used. Cords rated for less current than the equipment
may overheat. Care should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be tripped
over or pulled.
6. Always unplug equipment from electrical outlet when not in use. Never use the cord to
pull the plug from the outlet. Grasp plug and pull to disconnect.
7. Let equipment cool completely before putting away. Loop cord loosely around equip-
ment when storing.
8. To reduce the risk of fire, do not operate equipment in the vicinity of open containers
of flammable liquids (gasoline).
9. Adequate ventilation should be provided.
10. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from moving parts.
11. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use on wet surfaces or expose to rain.
12. Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attach-
ments.
13. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact re-
sistant lenses, they are not safety glasses.
14. The socket-outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
15. The machine should only be operated by persons authorized to carry out mainte-
nance on the brakes of a vehicle.
16. Do not use the equipment under the influence of drugs or alcohol, or if your judgment
is impaired.
17. Always use the disc lathe DL8704 and the drive unit DU8610 together.
18. Only use the disc lathe DL8704 and the drive unit DU8610 as stipulated in this manu-
al.
19. Do not overload the disc lathe DL8704 and the drive unit DU8610.
20. Follow the electrical specifications as stated on the information plates of both devices.
21. Keep the workplace tidy. A disorderly working environment can lead to accidents.
22. If the equipment is not being used, it should be packed away out of children's’ reach.
23. Children must be kept clear of the equipment at all times.
24. No one else should be allowed to come in contact with the equipment or cables. Keep
them clear of the working area.
25. Do not use the equipment in wet, humid environments, or where there is risk of explo-
sion.
26. Do not use the motor (DU8610) below a level of 46 cm (18 inch) above the ground.
27. Always follow the safety regulations and the (dis-)assembly instructions provided by
the car manufacturer when (dis-)assembling vehicle parts.
28. A 0.5 meter (20 inch) working area is required both next to the drive unit DU8610 and
next to the disc lathe DL8704.
Important Safety Instructions

TH875015020-02-2015MAD Disc Aligner

29. The drive unit DU8610 must be equipped with a safety guard (SK-508), as specified in
this manual.
30. Make sure that the surface of the working area is level.
31. Maximum load capacity of top surface is 1 kg (2.2 Lbs).
32. Do not move the equipment while it is running.
33. Warning: machining generates hot chips of metal from the disc.
34. The accompanying risk of fire, injury or burns must be prevented by taking the follow-
ing safety precautions; Wear protective clothing, work gloves, a dust mask. Check
that a fire extinguisher is present.
35. If possible, always use the rubber silencer ring on the outer edge of the brake disc.
This will minimize vibration and/or noise.
36. MAD cannot be held liable for customized attachments or modifications of the equip-
ment.
37. Prior to using the equipment, damaged safety guards or other parts should be
checked in order to ascertain that they still function properly.
38. Check the alignment of the moving parts and their connections, possible part faults,
the set up and indeed any other conditions that might have an influence on the opera-
tion of the equipment.
39. If not otherwise indicated in the manual, damaged safety guards, cables, or other
parts must be replaced or repaired by an recognized technician.
40. Defective electric components must be replaced by a recognized technician.
41. In the interest of effectiveness and safety, keep the tips sharp and the equipment
clean.
42. Hand grips must be kept dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
43. Only maintain the equipment as described in this manual.
44. General repairs, repairs to damaged parts, as well as any other form of maintenance
should only be carried out by a recognized technician (possessing thorough electrical
and mechanical knowledge and experience) using genuine MAD spare parts.
45. Repairs and maintenance may only be carried out on the equipment if it has been
switched off and if the plug has been removed from the mains.
46. Prior to repairs on the drive unit DU8610, carefully short-circuit the connectors of the
capacitor to prevent electric shock injuries.
47. Always use original M.A.D. parts in carrying out repairs or maintenance.
48. Machining the brake discs can affect the brake performance. After the working check
if the deceleration meets the requirements of the law and the car manufacturer.

1. Place vehicle on car lift and put transmission in neutral.
2. Raise lift and place vehicle at correct working height, Fig. 24.
3. Check wheel bearing play on both sides of vehicle Fig. 25.
4. If necessary, adjust wheel bearing tolerances as described by the workshop
manual.
5. Immediately after removing the wheel, secure the brake rotor to the hub to pre-
vent dirt particles from accumulating between rotor and hub.
Use a brake pedal depressor to lock the brake rotor.
NOTE: Brake rotors are not all mounted to a hub with a screw or nut.
6. Remove the wheel and secure the brake rotor with the wheel nuts (or bolts) and
conical rings, Fig. 26-27.
7. Mount the drive adapter to one of the wheel nuts (or bolts), Fig. 27.
8. The V-shape of the drive adapter must seat firmly along the edge of the hub.
9. Tighten the wheel nuts or bolts evenly to 50 Nm (37 Ft-Lbs).
10. Remove the wheel on the other side of the vehicle and secure that brake rotor
with two wheel nuts (or bolts) and conical rings.
11. Remove he brake pedal depressor.
12. Check the thickness of the brake rotor, to ensure that the rotor will not be below
minimum thickness after machining.
13. Refer to the service manual for the minimum brake rotor thickness.
14. If the brake rotor is below minimum thickness, it must be replaced. Machining of
a rotor below minimum thickness is not permitted.
15. If the brake rotor is thicker than the discard size, determine the maximum
amount that could be machined off, for each side of the brake rotor.
16. Remove the complete brake caliper and hang it on the S-hook, Fig. 28.
17. Check that the brake line and caliper do not come in contact with the drive shaft
(or any other rotating part).
18. Remove rust and dirt from the mounting surface of the caliper mounting lugs.
The lugs must be clean, as they are the reference point for machining the brake
surface.
19. Fit the rubber silencer band around the outer edge of the brake rotor to help re-
duce noise and vibration, Fig. 29.
20. Connect the cable to the Drive Unit and the mains power supply.
21. Connect the cable between Drive Unit and Lathe.
22. Set the motor switch to position 0, then unlock the emergency switch.
23. Move the slides and bit holders of the Lathe in the most rear position. (By turning
the hand wheel anticlockwise).
24. In this position the tool bits cannot be damaged by touching the brake rotor.

1. Check the space between lathe and rotor:
Keep the space between lathe and rotor
short as possible, but minimal 5 mm (0.04
inch). Fig 39.
2. Possibilities to correct this dimension;
- Use the adapter with longer or shorter
Z-bracket(s) Fig 34-37.
3. Do not use air tools when mounting or
removing the mounting adapter and/or
the Lathe.
4. Fit the adapter on the car and adjust the
adapter height
Adapter with M10 metric inserts;
Mount the adapter to the brake caliper
ears, using the M10 bolts supplied,

Adapter with 9, 10.5, 12.5 mm or no
inserts;
Using the original caliper bolts, mount
the adapter to the threaded caliper ears,
Fig. 32-33.
a. Face the bow toward the axle.
b. Ensure the correct-length bolts are
used. When the bolts are fully inserted,
they must not touch the brake rotor.
c. If necessary, use the spacer tubes
provided to achieve the correct bolt
length.
d. Ensure the slide piece hex head bolts
are loose.
5. Position the slide piece in the center of
the hub. Then hand tighten the UMA
