INSTALLATION
1) To bleed air from master cylinder itself, tilt it as shown in figure
and add fluid into it.
NOTE:
After bleeding air from master cylinder, plug pipe hole in it
to prevent fluid from spilling out of it till pipe is connected.
2) Install master cylinder assembly and new gasket to body, attach-
ing bolt, nuts and push rod clevis pin.
NOTE:
Do not reuse gasket.
3) Torque attaching bolt and nut to specification.
4) Connect fluid pipe and torque flare nut to specification.

(b): 16 N
.m (1.6 kg-m, 11.5 lb-ft)
5) Apply grease to clevis pin and install it.
ªAº: Grease 99000-25010
6) Fill reservoir with specified brake fluid and check fluid leakage.
7) After installation, bleed air from system and check clutch pedal
free travel. Refer to BRAKE section for air bleeding procedure.
FLUID INSPECTION
Fluid level should be always between MIN and MAX lines on reser-
voir. If fluid decreases quickly, check for leakage, repair leaky point,
if any, and add fluid up to MAX level.
NOTE:
Brake fluid damages painted surface badly. Should it get on
painted surface, remove it immediately and clean surface
thoroughly.
Do not use shock absorber fluid or any other fluid which con-
tains mineral oil. Do not use container which has been used
for mineral oil or which is wet from water. Mineral oil will
cause swelling and distortion of rubber parts in hydraulic
clutch system and water will mix with brake fluid, lowering
fluid boiling point. Keep all fluid containers capped to pre-
vent contamination.
Make sure not to use fluid whose container cap was first
opened more than a year ago.

DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY CLUTCH
MASTER CYLINDER
DISASSEMBLY
1) Remove boot and then circlip with piston pushed in.
2) Remove push rod and blow compressed air gradually into hole
for pipe connection to remove piston assembly, using care to
prevent it from jumping out.
INSPECTION
Inspect all disassembled parts for wear or damage and replace
parts if necessary.
NOTE:
Wash disassembled parts with brake fluid.
Do not reuse piston assembly and circlip.
Inspect cylinder bore for scoring or corrosion. It is best to replace
corroded cylinder. Corrosion can be identified as pits or excessive
roughness.
NOTE:
Polishing bore of cylinder with anything abrasive is prohib-
ited, as damage to cylinder bore may occur.
Rinse cylinder in clean brake fluid. Shake excess rinsing fluid from
cylinder. Do not use a cloth to dry cylinder, as lint from cloth cannot
be kept away from cylinder bore surfaces.
ASSEMBLY
NOTE:
Before installation, wash each part in specified brake fluid.
1) Apply brake fluid to inside of piston assembly and cylinder body.
2) Install piston assembly into cylinder.
3) With piston pushed down, install circlip as shown.
And install boot.

REMOVAL
NOTE:
Do not allow fluid to get on painted surfaces.
1) Clean around reservoir cap and take out fluid with syringe or
such.
2) Disconnect fluid hose from operating cylinder.
3) Remove operating cylinder attaching bolts and operating cylin-
der.
INSTALLATION
1) For air bleeding of master cylinder alone, it must be removed
from vehicle.
For procedures of removal and installation of master cylinder as-
sembly and air bleeding, refer to CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER
section.
2) Apply small amount of grease to rod tip.
ªAº: Grease 99000-25010
NOTE:
Don't allow any grease to be on boot.
3) Install clutch operating cylinder and torque attaching bolts to
specification.
4) Connect clutch fluid hose and torque union bolt to specification.
