Removal Procedure
Notice: Support the brake caliper with heavy mechanic's wire, or equivalent, whenever it is separated from it's mount and the hydraulic flexible brake
hose is still connected. Failure to support the caliper in this manner will cause the flexible brake hose to bear the weight of the caliper, which may
cause damage to the brake hose and in turn may cause a brake fluid leak.
1. Remove the brake caliper (2) from the brake caliper mounting bracket and support the brake caliper with heavy mechanic's wire (1), or equivalent.
Do NOT disconnect the hydraulic brake flexible hose from the caliper.
2. Remove the brake pads from the brake caliper bracket.
