4) Remove the guide pin - front brake, lock pin - front brake, lock pin - sleeve, and pin boot from the support - front disc brake.
ASSEMBLY
1) Before assembly, check each part.
2) Clean the inside of the caliper body cylinder using brake fluid.
3) Apply a coat of brake fluid to piston seal and install the piston seal to the caliper body cylinder groove.
4) Apply a coat of brake fluid to the inner surface of caliper body cylinder and the entire outer surface of the piston - disc brake.
5) Apply grease contained in the piston seal kit to the piston boot, and install it to the groove at the end of the cylinder.
6) Insert the piston - disc brake into the caliper body cylinder.
7) Position the piston boot in the grooves on the piston - disc brake and the caliper body cylinder.
CAUTION:
Do not force the piston - disc brake into the caliper body cylinder.
8) Apply grease contained in the piston seal kit to the lock pin - front brake, the outer surface of guide pin - front brake, the inner surface of support cylinder, and the grooves of pin boot.
