ASSEMBLING THE REAR BRAKE CALIPER
WARNING
EWA59C1404
• Before installation, all internal brake com-
ponents should be cleaned and lubricated
with clean or new brake fluid.
• Never use solvents on internal brake
components as they will cause the brake
caliper piston dust seal and brake caliper
piston seal to swell and distort.
• Whenever a brake caliper is disassem-
bled, replace the brake caliper piston dust
seal and brake caliper piston seal.

INSTALLING THE REAR BRAKE CALIPER
1. Install:
• Rear brake caliper “1”
(temporarily)
• Brake hose gaskets
• Rear brake hose “2”
• Brake hose union bolt “3”
WARNING
EWA13530
Proper brake hose routing is essential to
insure safe vehicle operation. Refer to
“CABLE ROUTING” on page 2-39.
ECA14170
When installing the brake hose onto the
brake caliper “1”, make sure the brake pipe
“a” touches the projection “b” on the brake
caliper.
2. Remove:
• Rear brake caliper
3. Install:
• Brake pad supports
• Rear brake pads
• Rear brake caliper
• Rear brake caliper bolt
Refer to “REPLACING THE REAR
BRAKE PADS” on page 4-58.
4. Fill:
• Brake master cylinder reservoir
(with the specified amount of the speci-
fied brake fluid)
WARNING
EWA4B51011
• Use only the designated brake fluid.
Other brake fluids may cause the rubber
seals to deteriorate, causing leakage and
poor brake performance.
• Refill with the same type of brake fluid
that is already in the system. Mixing brake
fluids may result in a harmful chemical
reaction, leading to poor brake perfor-
mance.
• When refilling, be careful that water does
not enter the brake master cylinder reser-
voir. Water will significantly lower the
boiling point of the brake fluid and could
cause vapor lock.
ECA13540
Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces
and plastic parts. Therefore, always clean
up any spilt brake fluid immediately.
