Front Brake Master Cylinder Assembly
•
Before assembly, clean all parts including the master
cylinder with brake fluid or alcohol.
CAUTION
Except for the disc pads and disc, use only disc
brake fluid, isopropyl alcohol, or ethyl alcohol for
cleaning brake parts. Do not use any other fluid for
cleaning these parts. Gasoline, engine oil, or any
other petroleum distillate will cause deterioration of
the rubber parts. Oil spilled on any part will be diffi-
cult to wash off completely, and will eventually de-
teriorate the rubber used in the disc brake.
•
Take care not to scratch the piston or the inner wall of the
cylinder.
•
Apply brake fluid to the removed parts and to the inner
wall of the cylinder.
