WARNING:
Clean dust on caliper and brake pad with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the hazard of air- borne
particles or other materials.
CAUTION:
lWhile removing cylinder body, do not depress brake pedal because piston will pop out.
lIt is not necessary to remove 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 as not to stretch
brake hose.
lDo not damage piston boot.
lIf any shim is subject to serious corrosion, replace it with a new one.
lAlways replace shim as a set when replacing brake pad.
lKeep rotor out of brake fluid.

REMOVAL
1. Remove tyre from vehicle.
2. Remove lower sliding pin bolt.
3. Hang cylinder body with a wire. Remove pad assembly and pad retainer from torque member.
CAUTION:
When removing the pad retainer from the torque member, lift it in the direction indicated by the
arrow in the figure so that it does not deform.
INSTALLATION
1. Install inner shim to inner pad, and outer shim to outer pad.
2. Install pad retainers and pad assembly to torque member.
3. Press in piston until pads can be installed, and then install cylin-
der body to torque member.
CAUTION:
lWhen installing pad retainer, attach it firmly so that it
does not flat up higher than torque member, as shown in
the figure.
lIn the case of replacing pad with new one, check a brake
fluid level in the reservoir tank because brake fluid
returns to master cylinder reservoir tank when pressing
piston in.
