Rotary Sliding Resistance Check

CHECK
1. Remove the brake drum.





2. After turning the hub a few times to seat the bearing, wind a rope around the hub bolt and turn the hub by pulling at a 90° angle with a spring balance. Measure to determine whether or not the rotary-sliding resistance of the rear hub is at the limit value.
Limit: 22 Nm (16 ft. lbs.)
3. If limit value is exceeded, loosen the self-locking nut and then tighten it to the specified torque 175 ± 25 Nm (130 ± 18 ft. lbs.) and check the rear hub rotary sliding resistance again.
4. Replace the rear hub assembly if an adjustment cannot be made to within the limit.
