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.
