WARNING
EWA5D71017
• Before installation, all internal brake com-
ponents should be cleaned and lubricated
with clean or new brake fluid.
• Never use solvents on internal brake com-
ponents as they will cause the brake caliper
piston dust seal and piston seal to swell
and distort.
• Whenever a brake caliper is disassembled,
replace the brake caliper piston dust seal
and piston seal.

INSTALLING THE REAR BRAKE CALIPER
1. Install:
• Brake caliper “1”
• Copper washers
• Brake hose “2”
• Union bolt “3”
WARNING
EWA13530
Proper brake hose routing is essential to in-
sure safe vehicle operation. Refer to “CABLE
ROUTING” on page 2-33.
CAUTION:
ECA5D71030
When installing the brake hose onto the
brake caliper, be sure to position the brake
pipe “a” into the slot “b” in the brake caliper.
2. Install:
• Brake pad spring
• Brake pads
• Brake pad retaining bolts
• Rear brake caliper
Refer to “REPLACING THE REAR BRAKE
PADS” on page 4-33.
3. Install:
• Rear wheel
Refer to “REAR WHEEL” on page 4-12.
4. Fill:
• Brake fluid reservoir
(with the specified amount of the recom-
mended brake fluid)
WARNING
EWA13090
• 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 performance.
• When refilling, be careful that water does
not enter the brake fluid reservoir. Water
will significantly lower the boiling point of
the brake fluid and could cause vapor lock.
CAUTION:
ECA13540
Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces
and plastic parts. Therefore, always clean up
any spilt brake fluid immediately.
