Important: Do not use a screwdriver or pry bar to compress the caliper piston into the caliper. Any damage to the piston boot could cause corrosive
elements to enter the piston sealing area and lead to the piston seizing in the caliper bore.
Important: Do not exceed more than 1 mm of piston travel. Damage to the internal adjusting mechanism may result.
4. Using a large C clamp compress the caliper piston into the caliper bore to gain enough clearance to allow the caliper to pivot off the caliper
bracket. Compress the piston until resistance is felt, but no more than 1 mm of piston travel.
