CHECK
1. Measure the thickness of the brake lining at
several places.
Standard value: 2.8 mm
Limit: 1.0 mm
2. If the thickness of the brake lining is below the
limit, replace the shoe assemblies on both sides
of the vehicle. Never replace only one side.
3. Measure the inside diameter of the brake disc in
two places or more.
Standard value: 168.0 mm
Limit: 169.0 mm
4. If the inside diameter exceeds the limit, or if it is

STEERING WHEEL FREE PLAY CHECKM1372001000311
1. With the engine running (hydraulic operation), set
the front wheels straight ahead.
2. Measure the play on the steering wheel
circumference before the wheels start to move
when slightly moving the steering wheel in both
directions.
Limit: 30 mm
3. When the play exceeds the limit, check for the
play on the steering shaft and steering linkage
connection. Correct or replace.
4. If the free play still exceeds the limit value, set the
steering wheel straight ahead with the engine
stopped. Load 5 N towards the steering wheel
circumference and check the play.
Standard value (steering wheel play with the
engine stopped): 10 mm or less
5. If the play exceeds the standard value, remove
the steering gear (Refer to P.37-24) and check
the total pinion torque (Refer to P.37-27).
STEERING ANGLE CHECKM1372001100374
1. Place the front wheel on a turning radius gauge
and measure the steering angle.
Standard value:
2. If the steering angle is not within the standard
value, adjust the toe-in as follows.
Standard value:
at the centre of tyre tread: 1 ± 2 mm
Toe angle (per wheel): 0°03' ± 06'
3. Loosen the lock nut, and unclip the bellows.
4. Adjust the toe-in by turning the left and right tie
rod turnbuckles by the same amount (in opposite
directions).
NOTE: The toe will move out as the left
turnbuckle is turned toward the front of the vehicle
and the right turnbuckle is turned toward the rear
of the vehicle.
5. Tighten the lock nut to the specified torque, and
tighten the bellows by the clip.
Tightening torque: 40 ± 5 N⋅m
6. Recheck the steering angle.
