IMPORTANT
When disassembling the actuator, lay out the steel
plates (l) and the friction plate (E) in the order and
position they were in when removed. When
reassembling them, do not change the position of
any of the plates (front, back, left, and right) or the
order in which they are reassembled.
CAUTION
Match the camshaft lever (0 mark) with the
camshaft (punched mark: A).
Apply a good amount of TF500 over the
friction plate and steel plate when they are
replaced with new ones, before installing them
in the assembly.
Note:
Wear limit of the brake discs
4.8mm (When the brake discs are new:
5.3±0.1mm)
Inspecting and adjusting the brakes
Step on the brake pedal to see if the specified
amount of play (30-40 mm) is present and if
both left and right pedals have the same
amount of play. If not, do the following:
(1) Adjust the turnbuckle behind the brake
pedals so that left and right pedals have
the same amount of play.
(2) After adjusting, tighten the nut securely.
* By stepping hard on the pedal, make
sure the parking brake lever works
effectively.
