Brake Pedal
Components
Areas of Importance
1. During removal, all components should be gently handled to avoid knocking, especially the junction
surface. All components should be placed in order to avoid losing or taking the w\
rong parts.
2. Keep all parts clean and free of dust, scuffs, rust, corrosion, oil build-up, or any other contaminants.
3. All rubbing surfaces in a relative motion must be coated with lubricant\
.
4. During installation, strictly adhere to the standard torque for installi\
ng nuts.
5. While installing the return spring, be careful to avoid operator injury \
from it bouncing back.

2. Install the pedal pad and limiting stopper to the pedal
lever.
3. Apply lubricant on the inner bushing and the outer
pedal shaft. Install the pedal lever assembly, pedal
shaft, and brake pedal bracket welding assembly.
4. Put on a nut, and tighten the nut and spring washer
using a 30 N·m torque.
Brake pedal examination and adjustment
1. Check if the pedal height is correct.
Height between pedal and the lower cowl panel: 109 mm
Pedal push rod's working empty stroke: 2 mm
2. Adjust pedal height if necessary.
(a) Disconnect the brake lamp's switch wire connector,
loosen the lock nuts, rotate the brake switch and
unscrew it until no contact with the brake pedal's
limiting stopper.
(b) Loosen the control rod lock nut and use combination
pliers to rotate the control rod and adjust the brake
pedal height to its standard value. After arriving at the
standard value, tighten the lock nut, and make sure the
working empty stroke of the pedal push rod is 2 mm.
(c) Rotate the brake lamp's switch and push it in until it
barely contacts with the brake pedal limiting stopper,
continue rotating 1/2-1 circle, then tighten the lock nut.
(d) Connect the brake lamp's switch wire connector.
(e) When the brake pedal is loose, the brake lamp should
be off.

2. Installation
Complete the parking brake control mechanism's installation
by reversing its removal sequence. Please pay attention to
the items below:
(a) The open end of the parking brake lever assembly's
cable clamp should face down.
(b) While installing the parking brake lever, the assembly
structure must be properly adjusted, which is usually 5
to 8 gears.

Vacuum Booster with Brake Cylinder Assembly
Components
Areas of Importance
1. The vacuum booster with brake cylinder assembly is tightly connected with the brake pedal assembly on
the cowl panel using four nuts. It is also connected with the brake pedal push rod via an center pin and
lock pin. Thus before removal of the assembly, first loosen the rigid pipe fitting with an open-end wrench,
disconnect the lock pin and center pin using pliers, loosen the four nuts, and then proceed with the booster.
2. Tighten the lock nuts on brake master cylinder and vacuum booster according to the specified torque,
and coat with signal paint.
3. Dimensions between the rear housing head face and the adjusting fork hole center is adjusted to
standard before it leaves factory. Please do not adjust it again.
4. The vacuum booster valve rod on the vehicle must be in a free state.
5. The brake master cylinder's working agent is DOT4 brake fluid. It must not be mixed with any other
brake fluid.

1. Under non-operating conditions, the vacuum booster leaks air.2. Front and rear housing connection are not sealed.3. Booster's front and rear gas seal sealing failure.4. Vacuum check valve leaks.
1. Replace the front and back gas seal and control valve assembly.2. Replace the vacuum booster.3. Replace the vacuum check valve assembly.
Brake pedal is heavy with no boost effect1. Under non-operating conditions, the vacuum booster leaks air.2. Booster diaphragm worn and damaged.3. Control valve ring cup worn and damaged.
1. Replace the front, back gas seal and booster diaphragm.2. Replace the vacuum booster.3. Replace the control valve assembly.
Spongy pedal when braking1. There is air in the brake fluid.2. Cylinder or slave cylinder leaks oil.3. There is brake line seepage.
1. Eliminate the air in the system.2. Inspect the cylinder and sub-pump cup and replace with new parts.3. Inspect the pipeline and eliminate the seepage.
When continuously step on the brake pedal, the pedal will gradually change and expand till the highest extend.

Steering Knuckle and Hub Brake Assembly
Components
Disposable parts
Steering knuckle and hub brake assembly
examination and disassembly
1. Hoist the vehicle and remove the wheels.
2. Loosen the riveted areas of the front drive shaft nut
and remove the nut.
3. Inspect the front brake disc plate surface runout.
When measuring, tighten the two wheel nuts' symmetrical
locations. The front brake disc's brake linings runout on the
two sides should be no more than 0.11 mm. If oversized,
they should be repaired or replaced.
4. Inspect front brake disc thickness.
Standard thickness: 22.0 mm
Minimum thickness: 20.0 mm
The brake disc must be changed when it reaches the minimum
level of thickness.

(d) Measure the front hub bearing's starting torque.
Put the SST on the wheel bolts which are at the symmetric
locations. Put a dial torque wrench on the SST to slowly
rotate the flange assembly (45°/4s), requiring a starting
torque range of 0.1-0.3 N·m.
If the bearing rotation is not flexible, the front hub flange
plate surface movement inaccurate, or front hub bearing
starting torque is too much. The assembly must be replaced.
Steering knuckle's front hub bearing and
front hub flange assembly
1. Removal and inspection of front hub flange assembly.
(a) Use SST like a hand held travel hammer to repeatedly
hammer off the front hub flange assembly from the
steering knuckle and front hub bearing. Remove the
front hub with bearing's inner ring.
(b) Remove the bearing's inner ring on the front hub.
Use SST to remove the bearing's inner ring.

(c) Use dye penetrant to inspect the front hub flange for
cracks, which should be replaced if found.
(d) If one would like to continue using the front hub flange
assembly, first inspect the dimensions for the mounting
area of the bearing for inaccurate dimensions. If
oversized, replace.
Measurement range: Φ38+0.025 +0.009 mm
2. Remove the steering knuckle's front hub bearing.
3. Remove the snap ring for hole 72.
Use a bent nose retaining ring caliper for holes to remove the
snap ring for hole 72.

3. Examine the front hub flange plate surface runout.
Examining methods are the same as the methods used
during disassembly. Plate surface runout should not exceed
0.03 mm.
4. Examine the front hub bearing assembly's starting
torque.
Examining methods are the same as the methods used during
disassembly. Put the SST on the wheel bolts which are at the
symmetrical locations. Put a dial torque wrench on the SST to
slowly rotate the flange's flange assembly (45°/4s), which re-
quires a starting torque range of 0.1-0.3 N·m
5. Install the snap ring for hole 72.
Use a bent nose retaining ring caliper for holes to install the
snap ring for hole 72 at the steering knuckle's retaining ring
mounting position.
6. Install the steering knuckle's front hub bearing and
front hub flange assembly.
7. Install the front brake disc cover.
Install the front brake disc cover on the steering knuckle, and
tighten the bolt to the set torque.
