2. Apply the recommended fluid to the bearing part of the piston seal and piston. Insert the piston seal into grooves inside the caliper, being careful
not to twist the seal.
3. Install the piston boot to the piston.
Confirm that the concave part of the piston is situated outward and the boot fits in grooves of the piston well.
4. Install the piston and boot in the caliper housing. Insert the boot flange in the caliper housing and check that the boot fits in grooves around the
piston.
5. Apply the recommended oil to the inside of the locating pin insulator.
INSTALLATION
1. Before replacing the brake pads, drain brake fluid from the master cylinder reservoir until it is half full.
2. Install two caliper guide rods and tighten to the specified torque.
Specified torque: 22 - 32 Nm (220 - 320 kgf-cm, 16.2 - 23.6 ft. lbs.)
3. After filling the master cylinder reservoir with the fluid, bleed the brake line
Recommended brake fluid: DOT 3, DOT 4
4. Perform a road test.
NOTE: If there is a small quantity of air in the brake line, it can affect the brake pedal stroke so you must bleed the system carefully
CAUTION: When replacing me piston seal, check the pedal stroke.
If the pedal stroke is too great, the piston may not retain the piston seal.
Adjust as follows:
1. After removing the pad from the piston, push the piston into the cylinder 3-5mm. Put a lever or steel plate between the piston and disc, being
careful not to damage the contact surface of the disc or the piston end
2. Install the pad. Restore the brake pedal to the original position and step on it 2-3 times.
3. Repeat the above procedure more than 5 times and move the piston outward and inward to assure that the piston seal is properly installed.
4. Before driving a vehicle, step on the brake pedal and release it many times.
