Fig. 8 Removing piston from caliper:





1. Drain brake fluid from caliper.
2. Position caliper with shop cloths, and apply compressed air to fluid inlet port to ease piston from bore. Do not attempt to catch piston or to protect it when applying compressed air since personal injury is possible.
3. Remove dust seal from piston, then the piston seal from bore. Use wooden or plastic tool to remove piston seal since metal tools may damage piston.
4. Remove bleeder screw.
