WARNING: Brake fluid contains polyglycol ethers and polyglycols. Avoid contact with eyes. Wash hands thoroughly after handling. If brake fluid contacts eyes, flush eyes with running water for 15 minutes. Get medical attention if irritation persists. If taken internally, drink water to induce vomiting. Get medical attention immediately.

CAUTION: Brake fluid is harmful to painted or plastic surfaces. If brake fluid is spilled onto a painted or plastic surface, immediately wash it with water.

CAUTION: Install a new pad if it is worn to or past the specified thickness above the metal backing plate or rivets. Install new pads in complete axle sets.

CAUTION: When removing the front disc brake caliper, never allow it to hang from the brake hose. Provide a suitable support.

CAUTION: Do not allow grease, oil, brake fluid or other contaminants to contact the pad lining material. Do not install contaminated pads.

CAUTION: Use care not to damage the bleeder screw or front wheel disc brake shield.

CAUTION: Use a hub-mount brake lathe if necessary to machine the rear brake disc.
