    BRAKING FORCE CHART

      Braking force
    Rear wheel total 10% or more of load on front or rear wheels
    Difference between right and left wheels 8% or less of load on front or rear wheels
    Grand total 50% or more of vehicle weight at the time of test

When measurement is difficult to carry out because both of front wheels are locked, check if braking force measurement in this condition conforms to standard grand total.
