8. Hub nut
Adjustment of front wheel hub bearing preload
1. Tighten spindle nut to 3.0 kg
m (21.7 lb.ft/29.4 Nm) torque.
2. Turn the hub 2-3 turns and loosen the nut just enough so
that it can be turned with the fingers.
3. Turn the nut all the way in with the fingers and check to be
sure the hub has no free play.
4. Measure the bearing preload by pulling one of the wheel hub
studs with a spring scale.
5. Tighten the spindle nut until specified bearing preload Is
obtained.
After reassembling, install the disc brake caliper assembly.

Preload Adjustment
Tighten the hub nut at 29.4 Nm (3 kgfm / 21.716 lb.ft), then
loosen the nut to the full.
Tighten the hub nut at the value given below, using a spring
scale on the wheel pin.

If the measured bearing preload is outside the specifications,
adjust it by loosening or tightening the bearing nut.
6. Lock Washer
Turn the side with larger diameter of the tapered bore to the
vehicle outer side, and attach the washer.
If the bolt holes in the lock plate are not aligned with the
corresponding holes in the nut, reverse the lock plate.
If the bolt holes are still out of alignment, turn in the nut just
enough to obtain alignment,. Screw is to be fastened tightly so
its head may come lower than the surface of the washer.
