139Chapter 9 Brake SystemSection 1 Brake SystemPrecaution1. It's very important to keep the parts and area clean when repairing the brake system.
2. Care must be taken to replace each part properly as it could affect the performance of the brake
system and result in a driving hazard.
3. Do not let brake fluid remain on a painted surface when repairing any parts. Wash it off
immediately.
4. If any work is done on the brake system or air in the brake pipelines is suspected, bleed the
system of air.
5. Check the brake system for leakage after repairing the brake system.
6. Use specified brake fluid. Do not mix with other brand of brake fluid.Problem symptoms tableUse the table below to help you find the cause of the problem. The numbers indicate the priority of the likely
cause of the problem. Check each part in order. If necessary, replace these parts.Symptom Cause

(3) At the point when fluid stops flowing out, tighten the bleeder plug, and then release the brake pedal.
(4) Repeat (2) and (3) until all the air in the fluid has been bled out.
(5) Repeat the above procedure to bleed the brake pipeline of the air for each wheel cylinder.
Notice: Fill brake fluid into the reservoir all the time when bleeding.
3. Check fluid level in reservoir
Check the fluid level and fill fluid if necessary.Symptom Suspe ct a re a

Notice: Be careful not to put your finger in front of the piston when blowing
the compressed air. Be careful of the splashed brake fluid
10. Remove the piston oil seal
Remove the oil seal from the brake cylinder with a screwdriver
11.Check the brake cylinder and piston
Check the cylinder wall and piston for rust and damage
12. Check the thickness of the brake pad
Measure the thickness with a ruler: Standard thickness: 10mm,
Minimum thickness: 1mm
13. Check the front brake alarm plate
Make sure the alarm plate has enough elasticity, and is not cracked
or worn. Clean all rust, dirt and foreign materials

Measure the disc thickness with micrometer:
Standard thickness: 11mm
Minimum thickness: 10mm

14615. Remove the front disc
16. Installation is in the reverse order of the above-mentioned procedure
Notice:

(Measured 10mm from the brake disc outside edge)
(2) Be careful not to install the brake cylinder guide boot in the reverse direction
(3) Make sure the cylinder and the piston oil seal are clean before installing the
piston oil seal in the brake cylinder. Apply lithium soap base glycol grease to
the piston surface. Never rotate the piston into the brake cylinder by force.
(4) Install the brake caliper to tighten the bolt torque: 85~90 N.m
(5) Replace the noise insulator when replacing the worn brake pad. Make sure the
clip plate is in normal status. Otherwise, replace the floating clip plate
(6) Make sure the brake pad and disc surface are clean. Oil or grease is not attached.
(7) Install the brake hose. Uion thread torque: 16~20N.m
(8) Bleed the air in the brake system. Check the brake system for leakage.
(9) Install the front wheel. The tire nut torque: 95~115 N.msimultaneously.floating
