NL06-0025b

Notes:

If the brake disc run-out exceeds the maximum, firstly change the mounting position of the brake disc and the axle
to minimize the brake disc run-out; if the brake disc run-out further exceeds the maximum after changing the
mounting position, inspect the upward clearance of the bearing and the run-out of the axle hub; if the bearing
clearance and the axle hub run-out are normal, or the thickness of the brake disc is within the specified range,
grind the brake disc; and if the brake disc is thinner than the minimum value, replace the brake disc.
