Note zones with increased wear!
Fork arm wear can occur on all four sides of the fork arm depending on use. It is
necessary to check for wear in every area. Due to the increased ground contact, the
fork arm must be checked, particularly on the underside in the vicinity of the fork bend
(Fig. 18/1) and the fork tip (Fig. 18/2).
