BRAKE: BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER: REMOVAL

REMOVAL
NOTICE: The structure of the master cylinder allows the piston to pop out, so observe the following:
1. Do not hold the master cylinder by the piston. (Hold the master cylinder by its body or its reservoir when carrying it.)
2. Do not pull out the master cylinder piston.
3. Do not strike or pinch the master cylinder piston, and do not cause any damage to the master cylinder piston by any other means.
4. Make sure to release the vacuum from the brake booster before removing the master cylinder from the brake booster.
5. When installing the master cylinder to the brake booster, or when removing the master cylinder from the brake booster, make sure that the master cylinder is kept horizontal or its tip faces downward (the piston faces upward) to prevent the master cylinder piston from falling out.
6. Do not allow any foreign objects to contaminate the master cylinder piston. If a foreign object gets on the piston, remove it by using a shop rag or a piece of cloth and then apply an even layer of lithium soap based glycol grease around the circumference (sliding part) of the piston.
7. Do not use any other types of grease.

1. DRAIN BRAKE FLUID
NOTICE:
- Stop the engine and depress the brake pedal several times until no vacuum is left in the brake booster.
- If brake fluid leaks onto any painted surface, immediately wash it off.
