WARNING
Use denatured alcohol to clean brake system compo-
nents. Do not use mineral-based solvents (such as gaso-
line or paint thinner), which will deteriorate rubber parts
even after assembly. Deterioration of these components
can cause brake failure, which could result in death or
serious injury. (00291a)
1.
Clean all parts with denatured alcohol or D.O.T. 4
BRAKE FLUID. Do not contaminate with mineral oil or
other solvents. Wipe dry with a clean, lint free cloth. Blow
out drilled passages and bore with a clean air supply. Do
not use a wire or similar instrument to clean drilled pas-
sages.
2.
Carefully inspect all components. Replace any parts that
appear damaged or worn. Do not hone caliper piston
bore.

WARNING
Use only copper crush banjo washers (See Parts Catalog
for Part No.) with D.O.T. 4 brake fluid. Earlier silver banjo
washers are not compatible with D.O.T. 4 fluid and will
not seal properly over time. Failure to comply may
adversely affect braking ability and lead to brake failure
which could result in death or serious injury.
