becomes as specified below and check corresponding pressure
of rear brake then. It should be within specification given below.

If rear brake pressure is higher than specification, move stay
ªAº to direction ªaº and if it is lower, to direction ªbº.
Repeat steps 3) and 4) until rear brake pressure is within spec-
ification.
After adjustment, be sure to torque bolt to specification.
5) Disconnect brake pipe (connecting between master cylinder
secondary side and 4-way joint) from master cylinder.
Tighten plug (special tool) to master cylinder.
Depress brake pedal. If rear brake pressure is 95 ± 100 kg / cm

when front brake pressure is 100 kg / cm2, it means that front fail-
safe system functions properly.

Before installing caliper (cylinder body) to carrier, check to ensure
that guide pin (pin bolt) inserted in each caliper carrier hole can be
moved smoothly in thrust direction.
NOTE:
Where temperature gets as low as ±30C in cold weather, use
rubber grease whose viscosity varies very little even at ±40C
(±40F).
