BRAKE CALIPER INSPECTION
BRAKE CALIPER
Inspect each brake caliper cylinder wall for nicks, scratches or
other damage. If any damages are found, replace the brake cal-
iper with a new one.
BRAKE CALIPER PISTON
Inspect the brake caliper piston for any scratches or other dam-
age. If any damages are found, replace the piston with a new
one.
Do not use extremely high pressure air to remove the
brake caliper piston, otherwise damage to the piston
will result.
Do not reuse the dust seal and piston seal to prevent
fluid leakage.
