Checking brake pads for wear / replacing the pads

Check brake pad wear.
Service limit "A"
- 3.8 mm (front and rear pads)
If service limit is exceeded, always replace the pads in pairs.
Be careful that no brake fluid or any oil gets on brake pads or discs. Clean off
with alcohol any fluid or oil that inadvertently gets on the pads or disc.
Replace the pads with new ones if they cannot be cleaned satisfactorily.
PADS REMOVAL
- Remove clips (1).
- Slide out pins (2).
- Remove pads.
Do not work the brake lever or pedal while removing the pads.
PADS INSTALLATION
- Install new brake pads.
- Reassemble the two pins (2) and the clips (1).
The above procedure eliminates the need to bleed the braking system after
replacing the pads. Simply operate the control lever several times until bringing
the pistons back to their normal position.
Drain some fluid from the reservoir when replacing the pads, or the
pistons backing up into the cylinders might cause fluid to spill out
of the reservoir.
