MA-62prose procedure

Rotor thickness specs vary by brake model: CL18C, CL18VD, AD22VF, AD7HA, CL9HA.

Checking Brake System

Check brake fluid lines and parking brake cables for improper attachment and for leaks, chafing, abrasions, deterioration, etc.

1

Never reuse drained brake fluid.
Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas.

Check vacuum lines, connections and check valve for improper attachment, air tightness, chafing and deterioration.

Check condition of disc brake components.

Check condition and thickness.
