2. Check the foreign material at the pad shims (A) and the back of the pads (B).
Contaminated brake discs or pads reduce stopping ability. Keep grease off the discs and pads.
3. Install the brake pads (B) and pad shims (A) correctly. Install the pad with the wear indicator (C) on the inside.
If you are reusing the pads, always reinstall the brake pads in their original positions to prevent a momentary loss of braking efficiency.
4. Push in the piston (A) so that the caliper will fit over the pads. Make sure that the piston boot is in position to prevent damaging it when pivoting
the caliper down.
5. Pivot the caliper down into position. Being careful not to damage the pin boot, install the guide rod bolt (B) and torque it to proper specification.
NOTE: Insert the piston in the cylinder using the special tool (09581-11000).
6. Depress the brake pedal several times to make sure the brakes work, then test-drive.
NOTE: Engagement of the brake may require a greater pedal stroke immediately after the brake pads have been replaced as a set Several
applications of the brake will restore the normal pedal stroke.
