Disassembly

WARNING: Never use an air hose or dry brush to clean brake assemblies. Use a vacuum cleaner, to avoid breathing brake dust.

Contaminated brake discs or pads reduce stopping ability.

CAUTION: Do not allow brake fluid to come into contact with the paintwork as it will cause surface damage. If brake fluid is spilled on the paintwork, wash it off immediately with water. To prevent spills, cover the hose joints with rags or shop towels.

Clean all parts in brake fluid and air dry; blow out all passages with compressed air.
