(5) Measure thickness of the pad assembly at a portion where B -
wear is severest.
(6) If the pad assemblies are worn beyond the limit, replace I Em
them.
Limit: 2.0 mm (.08 in.)
(7) Check pads for deformation, metal backing for damage, and go
oil on the linings.
Replace'the pad assemblies if necessary.

or more points.
Limit: 16.4 mm (.65 in.)
(9) Replace the brake disc if the brake disc thickness is smaller
than specified-limit even at one point. ~~
(lO)Measure the brake disc runout at Its perrpheral end face.
Limit: 0.15 mm (.006 in.)
(11)lf the brake disc runout -exceeds the limit, change its
position on the hub and/or retorque evenly.
(12)Check the runout again. If it cannot be corrected, replace
the brake disc. Do not r&urface it.
NOTE
Before measurement of brake disc runout, check wheel
bearing for play and correct if necessary. Also clean the disc
surface to remove dirt and rust before runput measure-,
ment.

(13)To determineIthe dragging force of the pad, measure
the
rotational force of the hub with the pad removed.
(14)Screw in the piston by using the special tool and then Install ~=
the caliper body.
NOTE
At this point, set the piston stopper grooves, as shown
by
the arrow in the illustration, so that they will interlock with
the projections on the rear of the pad assembly.
If the reservoir is full of brake fluid, pushing in of the piston
will cause overflow of fluid from the reservoir. Drain
somewhat, therefore, before operation.
Before setting the special tool, clean the piston.
