BEDDING-IN PROCEDURE FOR SBS-DC Dual Carbon
ATTENTION!
These Dual Carbon Pads are developed/recommended for RACE use.
DC = Dual Carbon -/- TF = Transfer Film
1.) New Discs/DC Pads
- Achieve optimal pad/disc surface contact by a series of gentle brake applications.
- Repeat short brake applications, building up the heat, until the necessary TF is achieved on the the disc (colour: uniform, thin black/dark blue layer), typically after 2-3 laps.
- Thereafter, cool the brakes for 3-5 minutes.
2.) Discs in use with DC pads
- Never clean (grind) disc surface when replacing to new DC pads, otherwise the TF will disappear.
- Repeat procedure on para 1.1.
- Procedure of para 1.2 + 1.3 is not necessary.
3.) Discs in use with pads other than DC
- Clean disc surface from layer of previous pad material.
- Apply procedures of para 1.1-1.3.
The TF procedure of para 1.2+1.3 is NEVER to be repeated on the same discs, provided the usage of SBS-DC pads continues.
Replace the pads when the friction material is worn to 2mm (0.08") or less. For Dual Discs (Front wheel) replace all four pads. Keep pads free of Oil/Dirt or other contaminants. Conditions of OFF HIGHWAY USE are BEYOND manufacturer´s control. ALWAYS drive safely.
