## Disc Plate Removal Note

If any disc plate is difficult to remove, perform the following steps to remove it.

1. Insert a flathead screwdriver into the service hole and turn the adjuster in the direction of the arrow to compress the parking brake shoe.

2. Remove the disc plate.

## Parking Brake Shoe Removal Note

2. Press the adjuster bolt and tappet by hand, and slowly remove the parking brake shoe.

  Note

  • When removing the parking brake shoe, firmly press the adjuster bolt and tappet by hand and slowly remove the parking brake shoe to prevent the adjuster bolt, tappet, operation lever and other parts from flying off.

## Adjuster Bolt and Nut, Tappet Installation Note

1. Install the adjuster bolt and nut, and tappet so that the adjuster nut is facing toward the vehicle front.

2. Completely tighten the adjuster bolt and nut.

3. After installation, verify that there is no gap between the adjuster bolt or tappet and the cylinder.

  • If there is a gap due to improper installation of the operation lever, reinstall while pressing the operation lever completely inward.

4. Move the operation lever by hand and verify that it operates properly.

  • If proper operation cannot be verified, reinstall.

## Parking Brake Shoe Installation Note

1. Measure the parking brake lining thickness with a vernier caliper or measuring scale.

  • If it is less than the minimum thickness, install a new parking brake shoe.

  Note

  • Install the parking brake shoe so that the marking is facing outward.

Minimum thickness

  1.0 mm {0.04 in}

2. After installing the opening of the parking brake shoe to the adjuster bolt and tappet, push the brake shoe downward and attach it to the shoe stopper.

## Disc Plate Installation Note

1. Measure the inner diameter of the disc plate with a vernier caliper.

  • If it exceeds the maximum diameter, install the new disc plate.

Maximum diameter

  191.0 mm {7.52 in}

2. Perform the following steps to adjust the shoe clearance after installing the disc plate.

  (1) Insert a flathead screwdriver into the service hole and turn the adjuster in the direction of the arrow to expand the parking brake shoe until the disc plate cannot rotate.
  (2) Return the adjuster 13-17 notches in the direction of the arrow.

  Note

  • Shoe clearance can be adjusted to 0.15 mm {0.006 in} by returning the adjuster 15 notches.

  (3) Rotate the disc plate and make sure it does not drag.
