Master Cylinder Assembly Disassembly and
Assembly
S7RS0B4106013
Disassembly
1) Push in primary piston (1) to remove secondary
piston stopper pin (2) from master cylinder as
shown.
2) Remove circlip (1).
3) Remove piston guide and primary piston. Then remove secondary piston by blowing compressed air
(2) into hole. Be cautions during removal as
secondary piston jumps out.
WARNING!
Do not apply too highly compressed air
which will cause piston to jump out of
cylinder. Place a cloth to prevent piston from
damage. It should be taken out gradually with
moderately compressed air. Do not place
your fingers in front of piston when using
compressed air.

Assembly
CAUTION!
• Never use any mineral oil such as kerosene oil and gasoline when washing
and assembling parts.
• Check inside of cylinder wall, pistons and cup seals are free from any foreign objects
such as dust and dirt and use case not to
cause any damage with a tool during
assembly.
• Do not drop parts. Do not use any part which has been dropped.

1) Apply brake fluid to inside of cylinder and contact surface of piston assembly (new piston cups, new O-
ring and piston guide).
2) Install secondary return spring and secondary piston (1) into cylinder body (4).
NOTE
Align oblong hole in secondary piston (2)
with stopper pin hole (3) in master cylinder
body (4) when installing it.

3) Install primary piston assembly into cylinder body.
4) Install piston stopper pin (2) with pistons pushed in all the way and install it.
