Inspect caliper components as directed by the diagram.



WARNING:
- Never use an air hose or dry brush to clean brake assemblies.
- Use an Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) approved vacuum cleaner to avoid breathing brake dust.
- Contaminated brake discs or pads reduce stopping ability.

NOTE:
- Coat piston, piston seal, and caliper bore with clean brake fluid.
- Replace parts with new ones whenever specified to do so.

CAUTION:
- Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle; it may damage the paint; if brake fluid does contact the paint, wash it off immediately with water.
- To prevent spills, cover the hose joints with rags or shop towels.
- Clean all parts in brake fluid and air dry; blow out all passages with compressed air.
- Before reassembling, check that all parts are free of dust and other foreign particles.
- Replace all rubber parts with new ones whenever disassembled.
- Make sure no dirt or other foreign matter is allowed to contaminate the brake fluid.
- Always use DOT 3 Brake Fluid. Using a non-DOT 3 brake fluid can cause corrosion and decrease the life of the system.
