o Use an OSHA-approved vacuum cleanel to avoid brealhing brake dust'
. Contaminated brake discs or pads reduce stopping sbility.
. When reusing the pads, in3tall thom in thoil original positions to prevent loss of braking efficiency'
CAUTION:
. Do not soill brake fluid on the vehicle; lt may damage lhe paint; if brake fluid does contacl the paint' wash it oft imme-
diately with water.
. Cl€an all Darts in brake fluid and air dry; blow out all passagss with comPressed air'
. Belore rsas3embling, check that all parts ars free ot du3t and othor tor€ign particles'
. Replace parts with new ones whenever spscifiod to do so.
o Make sur€ no dirt or othor foreign matter is allowed to contaminate the brake tluid'
. Always use Genuine Honda DOT 3 Brake fluid. Using a non-Honda brake fluid can Gtuse corrosion and decrease the
lif€ of ths system.
NOTE:
. Coat piston, piston seal, and caliper bore with clean brake fluid
. Replace all rubber parts with new ones whenever disassembled.
o .-'{@]: Use recommended silicone and pin greases in the caliper seal set.

Actuator Cable Adjustment
Check that the actuator cable operates smoothlywith no binding or sticking.
Stan the engine. Hold the engine at 3,000 rpm withno load (Afl'in N or E, M/T in neutral) untit theradiator fan comes on, then let it idle.
Measure the amount of movement of the actuato.rod until the cable pulls on the accelerator lever(engine speed starts to increase). Free Dlay shouldbe 11 t 1.0 mm (0.43 I 0.04 in).

lf free play is not within specs, loosen the locknut,
and turn the adjusting nut as required.
NOTE: lf necessary. check the throttle cable freeplay (see section 11). then recheck the actuator rodfree play.
Retighten the locknut, and recheck the free play.
