id041100201200
Purpose/Function
• A leading/trailing type rear drum brake with a 200 mm {7.87 in} drum inner diameter and 17.5 mm {0.689 in} wheel cylinder inner diameter has been adopted. (Except European (L.H.D. U.K.) specs.)
• A leading/trailing type rear drum brake with a 200 mm {7.87 in} drum inner diameter and 19.1 mm {0.752 in} wheel cylinder inner diameter has been adopted. (European (L.H.D. U.K.) specs.)
• Braking stability is ensured by use of 30.0 mm {1.18 in} width linings.
• An auto-adjuster has been adopted which maintains a fixed clearance between the brake drum and brake shoe.
Construction
Operation
• When the brake fluid is pressurized, the wheel cylinder pistons are pushed out. As a result, the brake shoes on the leading side and trailing side are pressed against the brake drum simultaneously and the brake is applied.
