NOTE: Do not squeeze the brake
lever when the pads are not in
their positions. It is difficult to push
the pistons back into position.
WARNING
Replacing only one of the two
brake pads can result in
uneven braking action and can
increase your chance of having
an accident.
Always replace both pads
together.
Rear Brake Pedal Adjustment
WARNING
Too much play in the rear brake
pedal can cause poor braking
performance and may lead to
an accident. Too little play may
force brake shoes to rub
against the drum at all times,
causing damage to the shoes
and the drum.
Follow the steps in this section
to adjust the rear brake pedal
properly.
