WARNING:
Clean dust on caliper and brake pad with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the hazard of airborne
particles or other materials.
CAUTION:
While removing cylinder body, do not depress brake pedal because piston will pop out.
It is not necessary to remove torque member mounting bolts on torque member and brake hose
except for disassembly or replacement of caliper assembly. In this case, hang cylinder body with a
wire so that brake hose is not under tension.
Do not damage piston boot.
If any shim is subject to serious corrosion, replace it with a new one.
Always replace shim and shim covers as a set when replacing brake pads.
Keep disc rotor clean of brake fluid.
Burnish the brake pads and disc rotor mutually contacting surfaces after refinishing or replacing
rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage. Refer to BR-38, "
Brake
Burnishing Procedure" .

WITH BREMBO CALIPERS
NOTE:
Refer to BR-30, "
HOW TO APPLY GREASE TO THE BRAKE PAD" for how to apply grease to brake pads.
WARNING:
Clean dust on caliper and brake pad with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the hazard of airborne
particles or other materials.
CAUTION:
While the brake pad and cylinder body are separated, the piston may suddenly jump out, so do not
depress the brake pedal.
Apart from caliper assembly, disassembly or replacement, there is no need to remove caliper bolts
or brake hose or tube.
Do not damage piston boot.
Keep disc rotor clean of brake fluid.

WARNING:
Clean dust on caliper and brake pad with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the hazard of airborne
particles or other materials.
CAUTION:
While removing cylinder body, never depress the brake pedal because the piston will pop out.
It is not necessary to remove bolts on torque member and brake hose except for disassembly or
replacement of the caliper assembly. In this case, hang cylinder body with a wire so as not to
stretch brake hose.
Do not damage piston boot.
If any shim is subject to serious corrosion, replace it with a new one.
Always replace shims and shim covers as a set when replacing brake pads.
