| Warning: Avoid taking the following
actions when you service wheel brake parts: Do not grind brake linings,
do not sand brake linings and do not clean wheel brake parts with a dry
brush or with compressed air. |
| Warning: Some models or aftermarket
brake parts may contain asbestos fibers which can become airborne in dust.
Breathing dust with asbestos fibers may cause serious bodily harm. Use a
water-dampened cloth in order to remove any dust on brake parts. Equipment
is available commercially in order to perform this washing function. These
wet methods prevent fibers from becoming airborne. |
