±10 N´m (8±1 kg-m, 58±7 ft-lb)
CAUTION:
IAlways replace the pads for both the left and
right wheels at the same time. Also replace pad
clips if they are twisted or worn.
IA wear indicator is provided on the inner
disc brake pad. If the pad wears down to such
an extent that the end of the wear indicator
contacts the disc rotor, a squeaking sound is
produced as the wheel rotates. If this sound is
heard, replace the pad.
IWhen replacing the pad, replace pads of the
right and left wheels at the same time.
3) Apply thin coat of PBC GREASE (Part No.
003607000) to the frictional portion between pad
and pad clip.

If it is difficult to push piston during pad
replacement, loosen air bleeder to facilitate work.
2. DISC ROTOR
1) Install disc rotor by tightening the five wheel
nuts.
2) Set a dial gauge on the disc rotor. Turn disc
rotor to check runout.
