HYDRAULIC BRAKE
FRONT BRAKE PAD REPLACEMENT
(NC700XA/XD/SA/SD)
• Always replace the brake pads in pairs to assure
even disc pressure.
• Check the brake fluid level in the brake master
cylinder reservoir as this operation causes the level
to rise.
Do not operate the
brake lever after
removing the brake
pads.
Remove the brake pad pin [1] and brake pads [2].
Install new brake pads [1] to the brake caliper so their
ends seat against the retainer.
Make sure that the retainer is installed to the caliper
bracket.
Check that the brake pad pin stopper ring [2] is in good
condition, replace if necessary.
Apply silicone grease to the brake pad pin stopper ring
and install it to the brake pad pin [3] groove.
Install the brake pad pin by pushing the pads against
the pad spring to align the brake pad pin holes in the
pads and brake caliper.
Tighten the front brake pad pin to the specified torque.
Operate the brake lever to seat the caliper piston
against the pads.
