TIP
 If the drive chain is difficult to re-
move, remove the wheel axle first,
and then lift the wheel upward
enough to remove the drive chain
from the rear sprocket.
 The drive chain cannot be disas-
sembled.
7. While supporting the brake caliper
bracket, pull the wheel axle out,
and then remove the wheel.
NOTICE: Do not apply the brake
after the wheel and brake disc
have been removed, otherwise
the brake pads will be forced
shut.
