5A-2 BRAKES PIPE / HOSE / MASTER CYLINDER
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
MASTER CYLINDER ASSEMBLY
The master cylinder has two pistons and three piston cups. Its hydraulic pressure is produced in the primary (ªaº
in the figure below) and secondary (ªbº) chambers. The hydraulic pressure produced in the primary chamber (ªaº)
acts on the front (for vehicle without ABS, rear) wheel brakes.
Also, the hydraulic pressure produced in the secondary chamber (ªbº) acts on the rear (for vehicle without ABS,
front) wheel brakes.
NOTE:
Replace all components included in repair kits to service this master cylinder. Lubricate rubber parts with
clean, fresh brake fluid to ease assembly. Do not use lubricated shop air on brake parts as damage to rub-
ber components may result. If any hydraulic component is removed or brake line disconnected, bleed the
brake system.
The torque values specified are for dry, unlubricated fasteners.
BOOSTER ASSEMBLY
The booster is located between the master cylinder and the brake pedal. It is so designed that the force created
when the brake pedal is depressed is mechanically increased combined with the engine vacuum.
The booster has two diaphragms of
ù7.5 in. (191 mm) effective diameter.
CAUTION:

Never disassemble brake booster assembly. If it is found faulty, replace it with new assembly.

The torque values specified are for dry, unlubricated fasteners. If any hydraulic component is re-
moved or brake line disconnected, bleed the brake system.

PARKING AND REAR BRAKE
WARNING:
For vehicles equipped with Supplemental Restraint (Air Bag) System

Service on and around the air bag system components or wiring must be performed only by an autho-
rized SUZUKI dealer. Refer to ªAir Bag System Components and Wiring Location Viewº under ªGener-
al Descriptionº in air bag system section in order to confirm whether you are performing service on
or near the air bag system components or wiring. Please observe all WARNINGS and ªService Precau-
tionsº under ªOn-Vehicle Serviceº in air bag system section before performing service on or around
the air bag system components or wiring. Failure to follow WARNINGS could result in unintentional
activation of the system or could render the system inoperative. Either of these two conditions may
result in severe injury.

Technical service work must be started at least 90 seconds after the ignition switch is turned to the
ªLOCKº position and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise, the system may
be activated by reserve energy in the Sensing and Diagnostic Module (SDM).
NOTE:
All brake fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of vital parts
and systems, and / or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one of same part
number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a replacement part of
lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during reassembly to assure
proper retention of all parts. There is to be no welding as it may result in extensive damage and weakening
of the metal.

5C-2 PARKING AND REAR BRAKE
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
DRUM BRAKE ASSEMBLY
The drum brake assembly has a self shoe clearance adjusting system so that drum-to-shoe clearance is main-
tained appropriate at all times. Rear brake is a drum type. It uses leading trailing operation when brake pedal is
depressed and when parking brake is applied on level road.
It also uses duo servo operation when parking brake is applied on gradient road and load is applied in longitudinal
direction of vehicle.
NOTE:
Replace all components included in repair kits to service this drum brake. Lubricate parts as specified.
WARNING:
If any hydraulic component is removed or brake line disconnected, bleed the brake system. The torque
values specified are for dry, unlubricated fasteners.
