1. Make sure that the friction surfaces of pads and
brake discs and free of grease and other contami-
nants.
2.The grease should never squeeze out from around

CAUTIONWhen servicing disc brakes, it is necessary to exercise caution to keep the disc brakes within the
allowable service values in order to maintain normal brake operation.
Before re-finishing or re-processing the brake disc surface, the following conditions should be checked.
Inspection itemsRemarks
Scratches, rust, saturated lining materials
and wearlIf the vehicle is not driven for a certain period, the sections of the discsthat are not in contact with lining will become rusty, causing noise and
shuddering.
lIf grooves resulting from excessive disc wear and scratches are not re-moved prior to installing a new pad assembly, there will momentarily
beinappropriatecontact between the disc and thelining(pad).
Run-out or drift
Ehange in thickness (parallelism)Excessive run-out or drift of the discs will increase the pedal depression
resistance due to piston knock-back.
If the thickness of the disc changes, this will cause pedal pulsation, shud-
deringand surging.

INSTILLATION OF FRONT BRAKE ASSEMBLY
14AO399Measure the disc brake drag force after installation of the
brake assembly by the following procedure.(1) With the brake assembly removed, use a spring bal-
ance to measure the rotation sliding resistance of the
hub in the forward direction.
NOTE
Tighten the nuts in order to secure the disc to the hub.(2) After installing the caliper support to the knuckle,
expand the piston, and then install the caliper body.
(3) Start the engine, and after depressing the brake pedal
hard two or three times, stop the engine.
(4) Turn brake disc forward 10 times.
(5) Use a spring balance to measure the rotation sliding re-
sistance of the hub in the forward direction.(6) Calculate the drag torque of the disc brake (difference
between measured values in 5 and 1).Standard value: 70
N (15.4 Ibs.) or less
(7) If the disc brake drag force exceeds the standard value,
disassemble piston and’clean the piston. Check for cor-
rosion or worn piston seal.
