Brake Pad: Testing and Inspection







1. Inspect brake shoes and brake shoe and lining (2001) for wear. If the lining is worn to within 3mm (1/8 inch) of the shoe, replace all (four) shoe and lining assemblies (complete axle set) on front wheels as required.
2. Do not attempt to clean or restore any oil or grease-soaked brake shoes and linings. When contaminated brake shoes and linings are found, they must be replaced in complete axle sets.
