DISASSEMBLING THE FRONT BRAKE CALIPERS

1.Remove:

●Brake caliper piston

●Dust seal 1

●Caliper piston seal 2

*****************************************************

Removal steps:

●Blow compressed air into the hose joint opening to force out the caliper piston from the brake caliper body.

WARNING

●Never try to pry out the caliper piston.

●Cover the caliper piston with a rag. Be careful not to get injured when the piston is expelled from the master cylinder.

●Remove the caliper piston seals.

CHECKING THE FRONT BRAKE CALIPERS

Recommended brake component

replacement schedule:

Brake pads

As required

Piston seal, dust seal Every two years

Brake hoses	Every two years

	Replace when
Brake fluid	brakes are
	disassembled.

WARNING

All internal brake components should be cleaned in new brake fluid only. Do not use solvents as they will cause seals to swell and distort.

1.Check:

●Brake caliper piston 1

Scratches/rust/wear → Replace the brake caliper assembly.

●Brake caliper cylinder 2

Wear/scratches → Replace the brake caliper assembly.

●Brake caliper body 3 Cracks/damage → Replace.
