Inspection-Caliper

CAUTION: Use brake fluid to clean cylinder. Never use mineral oil.

CYLINDER BODY
- Check inside surface of cylinder for score, rust, wear, damage or presence of foreign objects. If any of the above conditions are observed, replace cylinder body.
- Minor damage from rust or foreign objects may be eliminated by polishing surface with a fine emery paper. Replace cylinder body if necessary.

TORQUE MEMBER

Inspection-Rotor
RUBBING SURFACE
Check rotor for roughness, cracks or chips.

RUNOUT
1. Secure rotor to wheel hub with two nuts (M12 x 1.25).





2. Check runout using a dial indicator.
Make sure that wheel bearing axial end play is within the specifications before measuring.
3. Change relative positions of rotor and wheel hub so that runout is minimized.
Maximum runout: 0.07 mm (0.0028 inch)

THICKNESS





Rotor repair limit:
Minimum thickness
8.0 mm (0.315 inch)
Thickness variation (At least 8 positions)
Maximum 0.02 mm (0.0008 inch)
Replace rotor if any of the above do not meet the specifications.

Assembly





1. Insert cam with depression facing toward open end of cylinder.





2. Generously apply rubber grease to strut and push rod to make insertion easy.





3. Match protrusion on key plate with depression in cylinder.





4. Install snap ring with a suitable tool.





5. Install seat, spring, spring cover and snap ring while depressing with a suitable tool.





6. Install adjuster in the specified direction.





7. Install cup, adjuster, bearing, spacers, washer and snap ring with a suitable tool.
