PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND MINOR REPAIR
The front and rear brake shoes must be
checked for wear at the intervals speci-
fied in the periodic maintenance and lu-
brication chart. Each brake is provided
with a wear indicator, which allows you
to check the brake shoe wear without
having to disassemble the brake. To
check the brake shoe wear, check the
position of the wear indicator while ap-
plying the brake. If a brake shoe has
worn to the point that the wear indicator
reaches the wear limit line, have a
Yamaha dealer replace the brake shoes
as a set.
