5-28 BRAKES
CHECK FOR FRONT BRAKE AFTER INSTALLATION
Mount tires and make certain that they rotate smoothly, with a
force of less than 3.0 kg (6.6 Ib).
NOTE:
For above check the following must be observed.
• Jack up front wheels, both right and left, off the
ground.
• Shift transfer shift lever to 2H (rear wheel) position (if
equipped) and start engine for a few seconds then
stop.
• Side figure shows outer periphery of tire.
• Be careful not to depress brake pedal when checking
tire for rotation.
If tire rotation is heavy, check the following:
• Piston, piston seal and cylinder slide bush of caliper for
installation.
• Wheel bearings for breakage.
• Disc for flatness (Improper flatness brings disc into contact
with lining during rotation and makes rotation heavy).
To check this, measure disc deflection.
