CLEANING, INSPECTION
AND REPAIR
1. Thoroughly clean all parts in solvent.
WARNING
Never use compressed air to "spin-dry" bearings. Very
high bearing speeds can damage unlubricated bearings.
Spinning bearings with compressed air can also cause a
bearing to fly apart, which may result in personal injury.
2. Inspect all parts for damage or excessive wear.
3. Inspect brake rotor. Replace rotor if warped or badly
scored. Measure rotor thickness for excessive wear. Min-
imum rotor thickness is 0.17 in. (4.4 mm).
