BRAKE CALIPER ASSEMBLY (FRONT CALIPER 2 PISTON TYPE) : Inspection and 
Adjustment

INFOID:0000000000958474

INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY

Cylinder Body

Check the inner wall of the cylinder for rust, wear, cracks or damage. Replace the cylinder if any abnormal
condition is detected.

CAUTION:

Always clean with new brake fluid. Never clean with mineral oil such as gasoline and light oil.

Torque Member

Check the torque member for rust, wear, cracks or damage. Replace the member if any abnormal condition is
detected.

Piston

Check the piston for rust, wear, cracks or damage. Replace the piston if any abnormal condition is detected.

CAUTION:

A piston sliding surface is plated. Never polish with sandpaper.

Sliding Pin Bolt and Sliding Pin Boot

Check the sliding pin bolts and sliding pin boots for rust, wear, cracks or damage. Replace the parts if any
abnormal condition is detected.

ADJUSTMENT AFTER INSTALLATION

Brake Burnishing Procedure

Burnish contact surfaces between disc rotors and pads according to the following procedure after refinishing
or replacing disc rotor, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage.

CAUTION:

• Be careful of vehicle speed because the brake does not operate easily until pad and disc rotor are

securely fitted.

• Only perform this procedure under safe road and traffic conditions. Use extreme caution.
1.

Drive vehicle on straight, flat road.
