Finally riding a big boys bike
That hub is almost exactly the same as the Perry I just finished overhauling it works exactly the same way .
Do not get any grease on the inside of the hub shell and the brake cylinder .
I've had a few of the Perrys and would not put on the Vaseline like they suggest in the above Rebuild instructions .
(if you want it to stop )
Grease the bearings and use grease sparingly on the other moving parts .
While you have it apart check the inside of the hub for wear if its shiney like a mirror take some sandpaper and ruff up the surface .
It will be shiney on the brake side and dull on the drive side make it all dull .
The ribs on the brass brake cylinder also wear down and get smooth you can ruff them up like they suggest above but not too much .
Do not remove too much material .
Mine is 80 years old and will now stop on a dime before I had to stand on it to slow down .
The strap is covering the oil hole inside it is exactly the same as the Sachs
