Video tutorial

To replace the front brake pads on a Yamaha Xmax 400, you will need a 15 mm socket, a 10 mm T-bar, a 5 mm hex key, a screwdriver, a brush, thread lock, and of course, new brake pads. Mark the positions of the pins with a marker and remove the hex key and the pin shown in the video.

Then, use the socket to remove the caliper support pins. By pushing the caliper pistons back, you will create space to insert the new pads.

At this point, reassemble all the previously removed parts in reverse order.
