NOTE: For 2056 type reassembly procedures, see page 19-18.
o Never use an air hose or dry brush to clean brako assemblies.. Use an OSHA approved vacuum cleanerto avoid breathing brake dust.. Contaminated brake discs or pads reduce stopping abilhy.. when reusing the pads, always reinstall the brake pads in their original positions to pr€vent loss of braking €fficiency.
CAUTION:
. Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle; it may damage the paint; if brake fluid do€s contaci the psint, wash it oft imme"diately with water.
. Clean all parts in brake fluid and air dry; blow out all passag€s whh comp.€ssed air.. Betore reassembling, check that all parts are free ol dust and othor toreign particlos.
. Replace parts wilh new ones whenever specified to do so.. Make sure no dirt or other toreign matt€r is allowed to contaminate the brake fluid.. Always use Genuine Honda DOT 3 Brake Fluid. Using a non.Honda brake tluid can cause corrosion and decresse thelife of th€ system.
NOTE:
. Coat the piston, piston seal, and caliper bore with clean brake fluid.. Replace all rubber parts with new ones whenever disassembled.

Master Cylinder/Brake Booster
Pushrod Glearance Adjustment
NOTEr
. The master cylinder pushrod-to-piston clearancemust be checked and adjustments made, if neces_sary, before installing the master cylinder.. ABS type is shown, conventional brake type is similar.
1. Set the special tool on the master cylinde. body; push
in the center shaft until the top of it contacts the endofthe secondary piston by turning the adjusting nut.
Without disturbing the center shaft's Dosition, installthe specialtool upside down on the booster.Install the master cylinder nuts, and tighten to thespecified torque.
Connect the booster in-line with a vacuum gauge O _
101 kPa (0 - 760 mmHg, 30 in.Hg) to the booster,sengine vacuum supply, and maintain an enginespeed that will deliver 66 kpa (500 mmHg, 20 in.Hg)vacuum.
With a feeler gauge. measure the clearance Detweenthe gauge body and the adjusting nut as shown.

NOTE: lf the clearance between the gauge bodyand adjusting nut is 0.4 mm (0.02 in), the pushrod-to-piston clearance is 0 mm. However, if the clear_ance between the gauge body and adjusting nut is0 mm, the pushrod-to-piston clearance is 0.4 mm(0.02 in) or more. Therefore, it must be adjusted andrechecked.
6. lf clearance is incorrect, loosen the star locknut, andturn the adjuster in or out to adjust.
