FRONT BRAKE (DISC) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION

id041100800900

Note

•  If the set screw cannot be reused due to damage, it is not necessary to install a new one. At thistime, it is not necessary to replace a brake disc with no set screw.

•  There is no problem with the left or right brake having either a set screw or no set screw.

•  There are two types of brake discs; one with the set screw installation hole and the other without one. If it is necessary to replace a brake disc because it exceeds the wear limit, there is no problem with either the left or right brake having a set screw installation hole or not.

Vehicle with set screw

1.  Remove in the order indicated in the table.

2.  Install in the reverse order of removal.

3.  Add brake fluid, bleed the brakes, and inspect for leakage after the installation has been completed. (See AIR BLEEDING.)

4.  After installation, depress the pedal a few times, rotate the wheel by hand, and verify that the brake does not drag.
