REPLACEMENT
1. Remove lock pin.
2. Raise caliper body.
3. Remove pad from support.
4. Check pad thickness (including back metal).
Pad thickness: A
Standard value 15.0 mm (0.591 inch)
Wear limit 6.5 mm (0.256 inch)
CAUTION:
^ Always replace the pads for both the left and right wheels at the same time. Also replace pad clips if they are twisted or worn.
^ A wear indicator is provided on the inner disc brake pad. If the pad wears down to such an extent that the end of the wear indicator contacts the disc rotor, a squeaking sound is produced as the wheel rotates. If this sound is heard, replace the pad.
^ Replace pad if there is oil or grease on it.
5. Apply thin coat of PBC GREASE (Part No. 003607000) or equivalent to the frictional portion between pad and pad clip.
6. Install pads on support.
7. Install caliper body on support.
Tightening torque: 20 ± 4 Nm (2.0 ± 0.4 kg-m, 14.5 ± 2.9 ft. lbs.)
NOTE: If it is difficult to push piston during pad replacement, loosen air bleeder to facilitate work.
