ComponentEFS000CG
WARNING:

Clean brake pads with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the hazard of airborne particles or
other materials.
CAUTION:

When cylinder body is open, do not depress brake pedal because piston will pop out.

Be careful not to damage piston boot or spill brake fluid oil on rotor. Always replace shims when
replacing pads.

If shims are rusted or show peeling of the rubber coat, replace them with new shims.

It is not necessary to remove torque member mounting bolt and brake hose union bolt except for
disassembly or replacement of caliper assembly. In this case, suspend cylinder body with wire so
as not to stretch brake hose.

Burnish the brake pad contact surfaces after refinishing or replacing drums or rotors, after replac-
ing pads or linings, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage. Refer to BR-31, "
BRAKE BUR-
NISHING PROCEDURE" .
