Disassembly and Assembly

FRONT DISC BRAKE

Components:

CAUTION:
^ Clean dust on caliper and brake pads with a vacuum dust collector to minimize hazard of airborne particles or other materials.
^ While removing cylinder body, do not depress brake pedal because piston will pop out.
^ It is not necessary to remove bolts on torque member and brake hose except for disassembly or replacement of caliper assembly. In this case, hang cylinder body with a wire so as not to stretch brake hose.
^ Do not damage piston boot.
^ If any shim is subject to serious corrosion, replace it with a new one.
^ Always replace shim and shim cover as a set when replacing brake pads.
^ Keep rotor free from brake fluid.
^ Burnish the brake pads and disc rotor mutually contacting surfaces, after refinishing or replacing rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage.
