Removal and Installation of Brake Pad
AD22VK
Removal
1. Partially drain brake fluid reservoir. Removal and Replacement.
2. Remove front wheel and tire using power tools.
3. Remove sliding pin bolt (lower side).
4. Hang cylinder body with a wire, and remove pad return spring, pads, shims and pad retainers from torque member.
CAUTION:
When removing pad retainer from torque member, lift pad retainer in the direction shown by arrow, so as not to deform it.
Installation
1. Apply Molykote AS-880N grease to the shims. Install shims to pads.
CAUTION:
Securely install shims according to mounting direction of pads.
2. Apply Molykote 7439 grease as shown (A).
3. Install pad retainers, pad return spring, shims and pads to the torque member.
CAUTION:
- When installing pad retainer, attach it firmly so that it is not lifted up from torque member, as shown.
4. Install cylinder body to torque member and apply rubber grease, then install lower sliding pin bolt (lower side) and tighten it to the specified torque. Removal and Replacement.
CAUTION:
Check the brake fluid level in the reservoir tank for fluid level because brake fluid returns to master cylinder reservoir tank when pressing piston in.
