Subsection 05 (BRAKES)
Brake Pad Inspection
CAUTION: Do not clean brake pads in petrole-
um based solvent. Use brake system cleaner
only. Soiled brake pads must be replaced with
new ones.
Measure brake pad lining thickness or look at the
hollow places on both sides on the pad lining.
SERVICE LIMIT
Brake pad thickness
1 mm (1/32 in)
There are four hollow places on one set of brake
pads. When the pad wear reaches one of the hol-
low places, the pad must be changed even if the
pad wear does not reach another hollow place.

capacities.
CAUTION: Brake pads must always be replaced
in pairs.
Brake Pad Installation
Clean the visible portion of piston with clean brake
fluid.
Push caliper pistons inward before installing brake
pads.
NOTE:
Use a C-clamp or another suitable tool. To
avoid damaging the piston, use an old pad to push
it into the caliper.
Make sure that pad spring is in position.

Install new brake pads.
Install pad pins by pushing in the pads against pad
spring to align pad slots in the pads and caliper
body.
Install brake caliper so the disc is positioned be-
tween pads.
NOTE:
Be careful not to damage pads and make
sure pads are correctly inserted in their location.
Check fluid level in master cylinder reservoirs and
top up if necessary.
After the job is completed, firmly depress the
brake lever a few times to bring the pads in con-
tact with the disc.
Check for leaks and make sure the brakes operate
normally before driving. The pads must rest flat
on the disk.
BRAKE DISCS
Brake Disc Inspection (Front and Rear)
Brake discs can be inspected without removing
them from the vehicle.
Raise vehicle and support it securely. Remove
wheels and visually inspect disc surfaces for
scratches or grooves. Make sure to check both
sides of disc.
Measure thickness of the disc.
DISC MINIMUM THICKNESS
Front
3.5 mm (.138 in)
Rear
4.3 mm (.170 in)
Replace disc if not within specifications.
CAUTION: Brake discs should never be ma-
chined.
Turn the disc by hand and check warpage.
