BRAKE DISCS

Two images showing the removal of a brake disc from the hub assembly.

Dismantling-reassembly

Undo the the bolts securing the brake disc and remove it; when re-fitting, eliminate any traces of rust to ensure that the disc is perfectly perpendicular to the hub.

A hand using a thickness gauge to measure the brake disc surface.

Checking and measuring disc thickness

The minimum permissible brake disc thickness after wear is 9.20 mm; if the value is lower, the disc should be replaced.

In the case of damage or deep scoring the brake disc surfaces can be skimmed; after skimming, the brake disc thickness must not be less than 10.10 mm.

A dial indicator measuring the run-out of the brake disc.

Checking brake disc run-out

Also check that the disc run-out does not exceed 0.15 mm. This value should be measured 2 mm from the disc's outer diameter.
