REPLACEMENT
1. REMOVE REAR WHEEL
2. INSPECT PAD LINING THICKNESS
Check the pad thickness through the caliper inspection hole
and replace pads if not within the specification.
Minimum thickness: 1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
3. REMOVE BRAKE CALIPER
(a) Remove the 2 mounting bolts.
(b) Remove the caliper and suspend it so the hose is not
stretched.
HINT:
Do not disconnect the flexible hose.
4. REMOVE 2 PADS AND 4 ANTI-SQUEAL SHIMS
5. REMOVE 4 PAD SUPPORT PLATES
NOTICE:
The pad support plates can be used again provided that
they have sufficient rebound, no deformation, cracks or
wear, and have had all rust, dirt and foreign particles
cleaned off.
6. CHECK DISC THICKNESS AND RUNOUT
(See page BR-30)
7. INSTALL PAD SUPPORT PLATES
8. INSTALL NEW PADS
NOTICE:
When replacing worn pads, the anti-squeal shims must be
replaced together with the pads.
Install the 4 anti-squeal shims to the pads.
HINT:
Apply disc brake grease to both sides of the inner anti-squeal
shims (See page BR-24).
NOTICE:
Do not allow oil or grease to get on the rubbing face.
9. INSTALL CALIPER
(a) Draw out a small amount of brake fluid from the reservoir.
(b) Press in the pistons with a hammer handle or an equiva-
lent.
HINT:
Always change the pads on one wheel at a time as there
is a possibility of the opposite piston flying out.
If the piston is difficult to push in, loosen the bleeder plug
and push in the piston while letting some fluid escape.
