Why maintain the brake system?
The brake system plays a vital role in the safe driving of the vehicle. Neglecting small problems can lead to vehicle accidents. Check the brake shoes every 5,000 km under normal driving conditions, not only to check the remaining thickness, but also to check the remaining thickness. To check the state of wear of the shoe, the degree of wear on both sides is the same, whether it is played back freely, etc., and an abnormal situation is immediately solved. The brake shoes are generally composed of two parts: an iron liner and a friction material. Do not replace the shoes until the materials are worn out. The front brake shoes of the car, the new piece has a thickness of 14 mm, and the ultimate thickness of the replacement is 7 mm, including more than 3 mm of iron plate thickness and nearly 4 mm of friction material thickness. Some vehicles have a brake shoe alarm function that will alert you to change the shoe once the wear limit is reached. When replacing, you need to change the brake pads provided by the original spare parts, so that the brake effect between the brake pads of the brake pads is the best and the wear is minimal. Special tools must be used to replace the brake cylinders when replacing the shoes. It is not advisable to use a crowbar to press back hard, which may cause the brake caliper guide screw to bend, causing the brake pad to be stuck, causing unnecessary trouble. When the first foot is not braked, the accident is most likely to occur. After the replacement, you must step on the brakes to eliminate the gap between the shoe and the brake disc. You should also avoid this phenomenon. After the brake shoe is replaced, it needs to be grounded for 200 km to achieve the best braking effect. The shoe that has just been changed must be driven with caution.
