| Check | ||
1 | Check brake caliper (1) relative to fixed brake carrier (5) at all disk brakes by means of brake caliper marking (6) | If the brake caliper (1) is already at the wear limit position (picture B), the brake pads have reached the wear limit. This indirect check is only a rough check due to tolerance dimensions. | |

For safety reasons, the brake lining thickness must be checked directly with the wheels detached: | |||
| |||
Detach wheels - subject to separate repair order. | |||
2 | Remove stop plugs (4) from the inspection holes of brake carrier plates | Only on vehicles with drum brake. | |
3 | Check brake lining thickness of primary brake shoes and secondary brake shoes on all drum brakes | Only on vehicles with drum brake. | |
The wear limit is indicated by a stepped edge (arrow). | |||
