may damage the paint. To keep fluid from

spraying or running out of lines and hoses,

drain it in a suitable collector and wrap the

fittings with shop clothes when disconnecting

them.

or any other foreign material off the brake

linings, calipers, surfaces.

3. Use only DOT4 brake fluids confirming to SAE

J1704 from a sealed container. Ensure brake

fluid is not contaminated.

only, as it seriously affects the braking

efficiency and could otherwise lead to

disastrous situations.

5. All fasteners in brake system are important

attaching parts as they could affect the

performance of vital parts and system.

6. Ensure that recommended Tightening Torque

values are maintained during assembly.

7. Welding of brake parts should not be done as

it may result in damage or weakening of

components in the system.

hydraulic lines during bleeding.
