
Check and adjust master cylinder reservoir fluid level after pad service.

Make sure atmospheric vent on reservoir is unobstructed.

Adjust foot brake after pad service.

Test for brake drag after any brake system service and investigate cause if brake drag is
evident.

Make sure caliper moves freely on guide pins (where applicable) .

Inspect caliper piston seals for foreign material that could prevent caliper pistons from
returning freely.

Perform a brake burnishing procedure after install new pads to maximize service life.

DO NOT lubricate or clean the brake components with aerosol or petroleum products. Use
only approved brake cleaning products.
6.4 BURNISHING PROCEDURE
Brake pads (both hydraulic and mechanical) must be burnished to achieve full braking
effectiveness. Braking distance will be extended until brake pads are properly burnished. To
properly burnish the brake pads, use the following procedure.
1. Choose an area large enough to safely accelerate the CUV to 50 km/h (30 mph ) and to
brake to a stop.
2. Using hi gear, accelerate to 50 km/h (30 mph); then compress brake lever (pedal) to
decelerate to 0-8km/h (5 mph).
3. Repeat procedure on each brake system 20 times until brake pads are burnished.
4. Adjust the mechanical parking brake (if necessary).)
5. Verify that the brake light illuminates when the hand lever is compressed or the brake pedal
is depressed.
Failure to properly burnish the brake pads could lead to premature brake pad wear or brake loss.
Brake loss can result in severe injury.
6.5 BRAKE BLEEDING-FLUID CHANGE
NOTE: When bleeding the brakes or replacing the fluid always start with the caliper farthest
from the master cylinder.
CAUTION:
Always wear safety glasses.
CAUTION:
Brake fluid is highly corrosive. Do not spill brake fluid on any surface of the CUV.
