CAUTION:
Disc brake components rarely require dis-
assembly. DO NOT:
●
Disassemble components unless abso-
lutely necessary;
●
Use solvents on internal brake compo-
nents;
●
Use spent brake fluid for cleaning; (use
only clean brake fluid)
●
Allow brake fluid to come in contact with
the eyes, as this may cause eye injury;
●
Splash brake fluid onto painted surfaces
or plastic parts, as this may cause dam-
age;
●
Disconnect any hydraulic connection, as
this would require the entire brake sys-
tem to be disassembled, drained,
cleaned, properly filled and bled after
reassembly.
