4) Check pad thickness (including back metal).
Pad thickness: A
Standard value
15.0 mm (0.591 in)

6.5 mm (0.256 in)
G4M0362
CAUTION:
IAlways replace the pads for both the left and
right wheels at the same time. Also replace pad
clips if they are twisted or worn.
IA 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.
IReplace pad if there is oil or grease on it.
5) Apply thin coat of PBC GREASE (Part No.
03607000) to the frictional portion between pad
and pad clip.
6) Install pad on support.

replacement, loosen air bleeder to facilitate work.
2. DISC ROTOR
1) Install disc rotor by tightening the five wheel
nuts.
2) Set a dial gauge on the disc rotor. Turn disc
rotor to check runout.
G4M0382

B: HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
1) Be careful not to drop brake booster. Brake
booster should be discarded if it has been
dropped.
2) Use special care when handling operating rod.
If excessive force is applied to operating rod, suf-
ficient to cause a change in the angle in excess of
±3É, it may result in damage to the power piston
cylinder.
3) Use care when placing brake booster on the
floor.
CAUTION:
If external force is applied from above when
brake booster is placed in this position, the
resin portion as indicated by ªPº, may be dam-
aged.
G4M0425
4) Do not change the push rod length. If it has
been changed, reset the projected length ªLº to the
standard length.
Standard:
L = 10 mm (0.39 in)

±1 N´m (0.8±0.1 kg-m, 5.8±0.7 ft-lb)
11) Conduct road tests to ensure brakes do not
drag.
D: OPERATION CHECK (WITHOUT
USING GAUGES)
CAUTION:
When checking operation, be sure to securely
apply the hand brake.
1. CHECKING WITHOUT USING GAUGES
This method cannot determine the exact portion
which has failed, but it can provide a rough under-
standing of the nature of the failure if checking is
conducted in accordance with the following proce-
dures.
2. AIR TIGHTNESS CHECK
Start engine, and run it for 1 to 2 minutes, then turn
it off.
Depress brake pedal several times applying the
same pedal force as that used in ordinary braking
operations. The pedal stroke should be greatest on
the 1st depression, and it should become smaller
with each successive depression. If no change
occurs in the pedal height while in a depressed
state, brake booster is faulty.
G4M0744
NOTE:
IIn the event of defective operation, inspect the
condition of the check valve and vacuum hose.
IReplace them if faulty and conduct the test
again.
IIf no improvement is observed, check precisely
with gauges.
