Parentah Operasi

Brake Bed-In Procedure:

After installing new brake pads, it is essential to perform a 'bed-in' procedure to ensure optimal performance and longevity. This process transfers a layer of pad material to the rotor, improving friction and reducing noise.

1. Find a safe, flat area with minimal traffic.
2. Accelerate to a moderate speed (approx. 10-15 mph or 16-24 km/h).
3. Apply the brakes firmly but gradually, slowing down to a walking pace. Do not come to a complete stop.
4. Repeat this process approximately 20-30 times.
5. Allow the brakes to cool down completely.
6. Repeat steps 2-5, but this time apply the brakes with more force, almost to a complete stop.

You should notice an increase in braking power and a more consistent feel. Avoid hard braking or prolonged dragging of the brakes during the initial bed-in period.

Pangropéa

Regular maintenance will extend the life of your brake pads and ensure consistent performance.

• Inspeksi rutin: Periodically check your brake pads for wear. Replace them when the pad material is less than 0.5mm thick.
• Clean Rotors: Keep your brake rotors clean and free of oil, grease, or dirt. Use a clean cloth and isopropyl alcohol to wipe them down.
• Ngahindarkeun kontaminasi: Be careful not to get any lubricants or cleaning agents on your brake pads or rotors, as this can severely degrade braking performance and cause squealing.
• Check Caliper Alignment: Ensure your brake calipers remain properly aligned to prevent uneven pad wear and rubbing.
