1. MEASURE PAD LINING THICKNESS
Using a ruler, measure the pad lining thickness.
Standard thickness: 12.0 mm (0.472 inch)
Minimum thickness: 1.0 mm (0.039 inch)
Replace the pad if the thickness is less than the minimum (the 1.0 mm slit is no longer visible), or if it shows signs of uneven wear.
2. MEASURE DISC THICKNESS
Using a micrometer, measure the disc thickness.
Standard thickness: 22.0 mm (0.866 inch)
Minimum thickness: 20.0 mm (0.787 inch)
If the disc is scored or worn, or if its thickness is less than the minimum, repair or replace the disc.

Using a dial indicator, measure the disc runout at a position 10 mm (0.39 inch) from the outside edge.
