Refinishing Procedure

1. Locate the deepest score in the brake rotor. Turn the rotor micrometer knobs until the tool bit bottoms out at the deepest point of the score.
2. Zero the scale and back out the tool bits.
3. Advance the cutter hand-wheel until the bits have cleared the inner edge of the brake rotor face.
4. Adjust the micrometer knobs about 0.0127 mm (0.005 inch) more than the first reading. This will ensure clearing the brake rotor in one cut.
5. The finished brake rotor surface should be as close to that of a new brake rotor as possible. Failure to obtain the best possible brake rotor finish can affect initial braking performance.
