Service Tools) to lock the pressure spring cap onto the
pressure spring bar.
10. Inspect the operating procedures of the automatic ad-
juster.
(a) Refer to the diagram for directions, step on and off the
brake pedal, and make sure the self-adjusting screws
can rotate. If they are unable to rotate, inspect the rear
brake to try to determine the source of the problem.
(b) Adjust the adjusting mechanisms length and make it as
short as possible.
(c) Install the rear brake drum.
(d) Press the brake pedal towards the floor until a clicking
noise cannot be heard.
11. Inspect the space between the brake's friction plate
and rear brake drum.
(a) Remove the rear brake drum.
(b) Measure the rear brake drum's internal diameter and
the brake shoe friction plate's external diameter, and
inspect if the difference between the two diameters is
within the regulated clearance range.
Single sided clearance: 0.25 mm
If not correct, inspect the braking system.
12. Install the rear wheel.
Tightening torque: 100 N·m
13. Fill the brake fluid reservoir up with brake fluid and
exhaust the air out of the brake system.
14. Check for leaking brake fluid

Rear hub unit inspection and removal
1. Manually rotate the wheel according to the diagram,
and check the bearing of the rear hub unit for abnormal
noises and stiff rotation. If these flaws exist, please
replace the rear hub unit.
2. Remove the wheel.
3. Manually screw the two wheel nut's opposite angles on the
wheel bolt and fixed rear brake drum.
Remark: Alternately tighten the two nuts, and manually
screw it down as much as possible.

mounting bracket. Point the dial indicator to the rear brake
drum's outer end surface diameter at about a Φ136 mm
circumference (refer to diagrams dotted line area). Rotate the
rear brake drum, measure its runout, and maximum runout
0.11 mm is approval.
Caution: When the runout exceeds the maximum limit
of 0.11 mm, the rear hub unit should be replaced.
5. Remove the rear brake drum (See rear brake removal
step 4).
6. Examine the rear hub unit's starting torque.
(a) M a n u a l l y r o t a t e t h e r e a r h u b u n i t a n d c h e c k f o r
abnormal sounds or looseness. If the above problems
exist, it should be replaced with a new rear hub unit.
(b) Use a spring dynamometer to inspect the load applica-
tion.
Load application (when start the engine): 1 N·m
Caution: If the load application is greater than 1 N·m,
the rear wheel hub unit must be replaced.
7. Use calipers to measure the rear brake drum's internal
diameter.
If the measured result exceeds 201 mm, the drum brake must
be replaced.
Trailing arm spindle sleeve assembly removal
1. Examine the trailing arm spindle sleeve.
(a) Inspect the trailing arm spindle sleeve for deformities,
shifting, partial or serious cracks, and the gaskets for
loosening.
(b) If it's not easy to see clearly any existing damage of
the trailing arm spindle sleeve, take the following
steps: Use clean water to wash the trailing arm spindle
sleeve's rubber areas. At the same time rub it clean with
cotton. Check and make sure the rubber surface has
none of the previously mentioned flaws. If the above
flaws exist, replace with a the new trailing arm spindle
sleeve assembly.Cotton
