INSTALLING THE REAR BRAKE CALIPER
1. Install:
• Brake caliper “1”
(temporarily)
• Copper washers
• Brake hose “2”
• Union bolt “3”
WARNING
EWA13530
Proper brake hose routing is essential to
insure safe vehicle operation. Refer to
"CABLE ROUTING" on page 2-47.
CAUTION:
ECA14170
When installing the brake hose onto the
brake caliper “1”, make sure the brake pipe
“a” touches the projection “b” on the brake
caliper.
2. Remove:
• Brake caliper
3. Install:
• Brake pad spring
• Brake pad shims (on to the brake pads)
• Brake pads
• Brake caliper
4. Fill:
• Brake fluid reservoir
(with the specified amount of the recom-
mended brake fluid)
WARNING
EWA13090
• Use only the designated brake fluid.
Other brake fluids may cause the rubber
seals to deteriorate, causing leakage and
poor brake performance.
• Refill with the same type of brake fluid
that is already in the system. Mixing brake
fluids may result in a harmful chemical
reaction, leading to poor brake perfor-
mance.
• When refilling, be careful that water does
not enter the brake fluid reservoir. Water
will significantly lower the boiling point of
the brake fluid and could cause vapor
lock.
CAUTION:
ECA13540
Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces
and plastic parts. Therefore, always clean
up any spilt brake fluid immediately.
5. Bleed:
• Brake system
Refer to "BLEEDING THE HYDRAULIC
BRAKE SYSTEM" on page 3-26.
6. Check:
• Brake fluid level
Below the minimum level mark “c” → Add
the recommended brake fluid to the proper
level.
Refer to "CHECKING THE BRAKE FLUID
LEVEL" on page 3-24.
