Abstract
Resetting of the actuator piston of a disc brake by an adjusting device is enabled by sliding movement of the piston so that a piston position may be reset without any special arrangement for turning an adjusting spindle (5), or by turning the piston itself. The adjusting spindle (5) is released for rotation during resetting, while the adjusting spindle (5) is normally fixed against rotation yet axially slidably during the time of hydraulic actuation and during manual braking.
