2) Metal brake
Check the pressure plate,and brake rod for
abnormality.Replace defective parts.Replace the
metal brake whose thickness exceeds the usable
limit.
Standard thickness:mm(in) 18(0.708)
Usable limit:mm (in) 17.5((0.688)
Note:
Slight scratches on the friction surface can be
corrected with sandpaper(#1000)

2) When installing the brake unit on the wheel
pinion,friction plates and separator plates
should be arranged in correct order and never
forget to retain the unit with the snap ring.
3) Separator plate.
Measure the thickness and replace the plate whose
thickness exceeds the usable limit or whose
surfaces are damaged (Fig.7-9)

Standard thickness:mm(in) 2.5±0.09
(0.098)
Usable limit:mm (in) 2.2(0.087)
