CAUTION:
ICarefully monitor brake fluid level at master cylinder.
IUse new brake fluid ªDOT 3º.
IBe careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed on
paint areas, wash it away with water immediately.
IDepress pedal slowly when raising front brake pressure.
ICheck rear brake pressure 2 seconds after front brake
pressure reaches specified value.
IDisconnect harness connectors from ABS actuator and
electric unit before checking.
1. Remove front LH tire.
2. Connect tool to air bleeders on front LH brake caliper and rear
LH or RH brake wheel cylinder.
3. Install front LH tire.
Before installing front LH tire, confirm the tool is not touching
the front LH wheel.
4. Bleed air from the tool.
5. Check fluid pressure by depressing brake pedal.
kPa (kg/cm2, psi)
Applied pressure (Front brake) D16,375 (65, 924)
Output pressure (Rear brake) D
23,432 - 3,825
(35 - 39, 498 - 555)
If output pressure is out of specifications, replace master cylinder
assembly (built-in type).
6. Bleed air after disconnecting the tool. Refer to ªBleeding Brake
Systemº, BR-8.
7. Install front LH tire.
Removal and Installation (Built-in type)NBBR0117Always replace together with master cylinder as an assembly.
IRefer to ªMASTER CYLINDERº, BR-16.

1. Loosen lock nut and adjust pedal free height by turning brake
booster input rod. Then tighten lock nut.
Make sure that tip of input rod stays inside.
2. Adjust clearance ªC
1º and ªC2º with stop lamp switch and
ASCD switch respectively. Then tighten lock nuts.
3. Check pedal free play.
Make sure that stop lamp is off when pedal is released.
4. Check brake pedal's depressed height while engine is running.
If depressed height is below specified value, check brake sys-
tem for leaks, accumulation of air or any damage to compo-
nents (master cylinder, wheel cylinder, etc.). Then make nec-
essary repairs.

DisassemblyNBBR0034WARNING:
Do not place your fingers in front of piston.
CAUTION:
Do not scratch or score cylinder wall.
1. Push out piston with dust seal with compressed air.
2. Remove piston seal with a suitable tool.
InspectionNBBR0035CALIPERNBBR0035S01Cylinder BodyNBBR0035S0101ICheck inside surface of cylinder for score, rust, wear, damage
or presence of foreign objects. If any of the above conditions
are observed, replace cylinder body.
IMinor damage from rust or foreign objects may be eliminated
by polishing surface with a fine emery paper. Replace cylinder
body if necessary.
CAUTION:
Use brake fluid to clean. Never use mineral oil.
PistonNBBR0035S0102Check piston for score, rust, wear, damage or presence of foreign
objects. Replace if any of the above conditions are observed.
CAUTION:
Piston sliding surface is plated. Do not polish with emery
paper even if rust or foreign objects are stuck to sliding sur-
face.
Slide Pin, Pin Bolt and Pin BootNBBR0035S0103Check for wear, cracks, rust or other damage. Replace if any of the
above conditions are observed.

ROTORNBBR0035S02RunoutNBBR0035S02011. Secure rotor to wheel hub with at least two nuts (M12´1.25).
2. Check runout using a dial indicator.
Make sure that wheel bearing axial end play is within the
specifications before measuring. Refer to AX-4, ªFront Wheel
Bearingº.
Maximum runout:
0.1 mm (0.004 in)
3. If the runout is out of specification, find minimum runout posi-
tion as follows:
a. Remove nuts and rotor from wheel hub.
b. Shift the rotor one hole and secure rotor to wheel hub with
nuts.
c. Measure runout.
d. Repeat steps a. to c. so that minimum runout position can be
found.
4. If the runout is still out of specification, turn rotor with on-car
brake lathe (ªMAD, DL-8700º, ªAMMCO 700 and 705º or
equivalent).

1. Release parking brake lever fully, then remove drum.
If drum is hard to remove, the following procedures
should be carried out.
a. Remove plug. Then shorten adjuster to make clearance
between brake shoe and drum as shown.
