for wear. Replace brake pads when
they are worn to 3/64" (1 mm).

good operating condition. Check more often if brakes are used heavily
under normal operation.

2. Check the brake system for fluid leaks.
3. Check the brakes for excessive travel or spongy feel.
4. Check the friction pads for wear, damage and looseness. Replace
brake pads when they are worn to 3/64" (1 mm).
