14Caliper Piston Installation
Hold the banjo at the desired angle.
Use a torque wrench with a T25 TORX
®
bit socket to tighten the bolt to
4.4-5.4 N·m (39-48 in-lb).
Insert the Guide Ultimate™ bleed block into the caliper.
⚠ CAUTION
You must bleed your brakes before reinstalling the brake pads.
Installing the brake pads prior to bleeding the brakes could
contaminate the brake pads and could lead to a brake failure.
Spray isopropyl alcohol on the caliper and clean it with a shop towel.
Visually check your work. If any of the o-rings protrude from the banjo fitting or banjo bolt, remove and replace the o-rings, then repeat the installation
process.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Servicing your brakes removes all of the fluid from the system.
You must bleed the brakes after you service the brake caliper and/or lever.
