Removing and installing the front brake pads



Withdrawal

PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. Mark the position of the disc relative to the hub wheel to balance the wheel could be established in former position.
  2. Loosen the wheel nuts standing on the ground of the car.
  3. Lift the front of the vehicle.
  4. Remove the wheel.

Change places pad right and left wheels is unacceptable. Change of place can lead to uneven brake action. Be sure to replace simultaneously all Pads one axis even if deterioration borders were reached only one shoe. If Pads will be established again before removal they should be marked.

  1. Cars since 10/89 vol., Except models "versatile person": Slightly screw the two wheel nuts to lock the brake disc.
  2. Pull the brake caliper out and hand it to press the plunger.

Cars up to 9/89 MY. and "universal"

PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. Remove individual elements in numeric order. First knock pins mounting -1- hammer and punch out. Instead, you can use a nail punch.

Cars since 10/89 vol., Except models "versatile"

PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. Remove individual elements in numeric order. First, remove the screwdriver and spring mounting -1- -2-, taking into account the mounting position. Then knock the pins securing -3- with a hammer and punch or nail.

Replace slabosidyaschie fastening pins.

  1. Remove the brake pads and the intermediate (protivoskripnye) plate with pliers, screwdrivers or impact puller. If prirzhaveli pads, need a special remover (for example, HAZET).

Setting

When removing the brake pads do not press the brake pedal, or piston will be forced out of the body.


PERFORMANCE ORDER

  1. Clean the guide surfaces and the landing pads in the shaft housing suitable soft wire brush or rub with a cloth and alcohol. Do not use solvents containing mineral oils or tools with sharp edges.
  2. Before installing the brake pad wear, check the disc for grooves, felt his fingers. Brake discs with grooves must be replaced.
  3. Measure the thickness of the brake disc.
  4. Check for cracks and protective boot cuff in the caliper. Damaged sure to replace the cap, since penetrating dirt will quickly lead to the leakage of a support. To do this, brake caliper must be removed and disassembled (performed in the workshop).
  1. To press the brake piston the special adaptation. This can be done and durable wooden rod (hammer handle), with particularly sure that it is not twisted, and the surface of the piston and the boot are not damaged.

When retracted, the piston brake liquid is superseded from the brake cylinder in a broad tank. Watch the liquid level in the tank, it is possible to pump the liquid suction. For pumping the brake fluid extraction or use a plastic bottle, which is intended only for brake fluid. Do not use drinking utensils.

Brake fluid is poisonous and in any case should not be sucked mouth through a hose. After replacing the pads should not be exceeded the mark "MAX" on the expansion tank as the liquid expands when heated. Escaping liquid runs down the brake cylinder, and destroys corrosive lacquer.

If a strong brake pad wear check up ease of a piston stroke.

  1. To do this, insert a wooden rod in a support and ask the assistant to slowly squeeze the brake pedal. Piston brake must be nominated and easily pushed in. To check the other caliper must be removed. Ensure that the piston is not moved entirely. In severe during piston caliper repair (done in the workshop). If the piston is randomly pops up after installing the piston brake system should be bled. See section Bleeding the braking system.
  2. The next point to perform necessary: To prevent scratches of disk brakes, cover the opposite side of the base and side brake pad paste protivoskripnoy (eg Plastilube, Tunap VC 582 / S, Chevron SR / 2, Liqui Moly LM-36 and LM-508-ASC). At the same grease applied only to the back side.

Paste in any case should not go to a brake lining or brake disc.

  1. If necessary, the paste immediately wipe and clean the place of alcohol.
  2. Insert the two brake pads with protivoskripnymi plates in the brake caliper.
  3. Check spring and shoe attachment pins, in the case of severe corrosion and strain replaced. Insert the individual elements in the reverse sequence. See and Carefully score the mounting pins with a hammer until it stops.
  1. The support for the models with 10/89 Vol. (except for "supermarket"). Check the installation position of the spring mounting. The outer coil is in the pin hole mounting.
  1. If you were screwed, unscrew the wheel nuts. Screw wheel, given the label on the hub. Lower the car and tighten the wheel nuts crosswise with torque of 100 Nm.

Several times the brake pedal until it reaches a noticeable resistance.

  1. Check the brake fluid in the expansion tank, if necessary, top up to the MAX.
  2. Carefully new pads to earn extra, for this a few times to reduce the vehicle speed to 80 to 40 km / h by pressing the brake pedal a little. In between, pausing to cool the brakes.

For the first 200 km do not perform full braking.
