Wear safety glasses.
The caliper piston may dislodge rapidly from the caliper, which can lead
to bodily injury or damage to the parts. Point the caliper piston toward a
rubber surface before forcing air into the caliper.
While firmly pushing against the caliper half and chuck nozzle, squeeze
the air chuck to force air into the caliper hose port and dislodge the
piston from the caliper.
Continue to force air into the caliper until the piston is dislodged.
Remove the piston from the caliper.
