2. Through the control hole in the caliper, check the thickness of the brake pads. Minimum thickness 1.0 mm. Replace pads if necessary.
3. (Caliper with one working cylinder) Raise the caliper.
- A) While holding the lower guide pin, loosen the caliper mounting bolt.
- b) Turn away a bolt of fastening.
- V) Raise the caliper and secure it.
Note: Do not disconnect the brake hose from the caliper.
(Caliper with two working cylinders) Remove the support.
- A) While holding the lower guide pin, loosen the caliper mounting bolts.
- b) Turn away bolts of fastening.
- V) Remove the caliper and secure it.
Note: Do not disconnect the brake hose from the caliper.
A. Remove the following parts shown in the figure.
Type 1. Caliper with one working cylinder of the model up to 96 | Type 2. Caliper with one working cylinder of the model up to 96 |
Caliper with one working cylinder model c 96 | Caliper with two working cylinders |
5. Check disc thickness and runout.
6. Install the four retaining plate bushings.
7. Install new pads.
Note: If any brake pad needs to be replaced, replace all to ensure uniform braking.
(Caliper with one working cylinder model up to 96 type 1)
- A) Apply special disc brake grease to both sides of the inner anti-squeak pad.
- b) Install anti-squeak pads on each pad, following the assembly drawing.
- V) Install the inner pad with pad wear indicator.
- G) Install the outer block.
Caution: Do not allow oil or grease to come into contact with the running surfaces of the pads and disc.
- d) (Caliper with one working cylinder model up to 96 type 2) Install two anti-squeak springs on the pads.
(Caliper with one working cylinder of the model since 96)
- A) Apply special disc brake grease to the inside of the anti-squeak pad.
- b) Install anti-squeak pads on each pad.
- V) Install the brake pads. (Caliper with two working cylinders)
- A) Install the pad wear indicator on the new pad.
- b) Apply special disc brake grease to both sides of the inner anti-squeak pad.
- V) Install two anti-squeal pads on each pad.
- G) Install the inner pad with the wear indicator facing up.
Caution: Do not allow oil or grease to come into contact with the running surfaces of the pads and disc.
- d) Install the outer block.
- V) Install two anti-squeak springs on the pads.
8. Install the caliper.
- A) Remove a small amount of brake fluid from the reservoir.
- b) Push the piston into the cylinder with the handle of a hammer or similar.
Note: If the piston does not move well, loosen the bleeder screw and retract the piston if there is a slight leakage of brake fluid.
- V) Install the support.
- G) While holding the guide pin, tighten the bolt. Tightening torque 34 Nm.
9. Install the front wheel.
10. Check fluid level in reservoir and top up if necessary.
