PRE-OPERATION CHECK

Check Brakes

Rear Brake Pedal Freeplay and Movement

Rear brake pedal freeplay, the amount of brake pedal movement

from the rest position to the point that the master cylinder pushrod

touches the master cylinder piston should be 4.5-7mm (.177″ -

.280″). Adjust pedal freeplay as necessary (see page 110).
Press and release the rear brake pedal. It should move freely and

smoothly and should return to its rest position quickly when you

release it. You should feel a firm resistance in the pedal within the

first 3/8 inch (8 mm) of pedal travel.

4.5-7 mm

(.177 - .280 inch)
