Important:
• | Replace all of the components that are included in the repair
kits used to service this master cylinder. |
• | Lubricate the rubber parts in order to ease assembly. Use clean
brake fluid. |
• | Do not use lubricated compressed air on the brake parts. This
action may cause damage to the rubber components. |
• | If you remove or disconnect any hydraulic part, you may have to
bleed all or part of the brake system. |
• | The specified torque values are for dry, non-lubricated fasteners. |
• | Perform the service operations on a clean bench that is free from
all mineral oil materials. |
The master cylinder has an aluminum body and a plastic reservoir. The
brake system is a conventional front-to-rear split system. The master cylinder
primary piston provides the fluid pressure to the front disc brakes. The
secondary piston provides the fluid pressure to the rear disc brakes. If
pressure is lost from either system, the remaining system will function
in order to stop the vehicle.
Brake Master Cylinder Reservoir
The reservoir has a maximum fluid level indicator mark. The fluid level
indicator mark is located on the side of the reservoir.
