Task #03 - Brake Wear

10
The front brake wear is measured at the pads on the
brake unit itself, and they should be checked at each
regular maintenance interval.
Inspection:
Looking up at the pads from under the caliper assy, you
will see cutouts (1) on each pad. If either pad is worn to
the base of the cutout, then you must replace both pads
as a set.

The rear brake is equipped with a brake wear indicator
on the drum itself.
Inspection:
Have someone apply the rear brake. An arrow (1)
attached to the brake arm (2) moves toward a reference
mark (3) on the drum (4). If when the rear brake is
applied, the arrows align, then the rear brake is worn to
limits and the shoes must be replaced.
