BRAKE TUBE AND HOSE
Hydraulic CircuitINFOID:0000000001703784
CAUTION:
• All tubes and hoses must be free from excessive bending, twisting and pulling.
• Make sure there is no interference with other parts when turning steering both clockwise and coun-
terclockwise.
• Brake tubes and hoses are an important safety part. Always disassemble the parts and retighten
their fittings, if a brake fluid leak is detected. Replace applicable part with a new one, if damaged part
is detected.
• Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it way cause paint damage. If brake fluid is
splashed on painted surfaces of body, immediately wipe them with cloth and then wash it away with
water.
• Do not bend or twist brake hose sharply, or strongly pull it.
• When removing components, cover brake line connections so that dirt, dust, or other foreign mat-
ters do not get in.
• Refill using recommended brake fluid. Refer to MA-10
.
• Never reuse drained brake fluid.

INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY
Cylinder Body
• Check the inner wall of cylinder for damage, wear, corrosion, and pin holes. Replace cylinder body if neces-
sary.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
• Never use mineral oils such as kerosene or gasoline during the cleaning and assembly processes.
• Make sure that there is no foreign material such as dirt and dust on the inner wall of cylinder, piston,
and piston cup. Be careful not to damage parts with a service tool when assembling.
• Do not drop parts. If a part is dropped, do not use it.
1. Apply brake fluid to the inner wall of cylinder body, primary pis-
ton assembly and secondary piston assembly.
2. Insert secondary piston and primary piston assembly into cylin-
der body in this order.
CAUTION:
• Pay attention to the orientation of piston cup, and insert
straight to prevent cup from being caught by the inner
wall of cylinder.

BRAKE BOOSTER
BRAKE BOOSTER
On Board InspectionINFOID:0000000001703791
OPERATING CHECK
With the engine stopped, change the vacuum to the atmospheric pressure by depressing brake pedal several
times at intervals of 5 seconds.
Then with brake pedal fully depressed, start engine and when the
vacuum pressure reaches the standard, make sure that the clear-
ance between brake pedal and floor panel decreases.
AIRTIGHT CHECK
• Run engine at idle for approximately 1 minute, and stop it after
applying vacuum to booster. Depress brake pedal normally to
change the vacuum to the atmospheric pressure. Make sure that
distance between brake pedal and floor panel gradually increases.
• Depress the brake pedal while engine is running, then stop engine
with brake pedal depressed. The pedal stroke should not change
after holding pedal down for 30 seconds.
