Installation

Rotate the caliper piston (A) clockwise into the cylinder, the align the cutout (B) in the piston with the tab (C) on the inner pad by turning the piston back. See Fig. 20 . Lubricate the boot with rubber grease to avoid
twisting the piston boot. If the piston boot is twisted, back it out so it is positioned properly. To complete installation, reverse removal procedure. Tighten all fasteners to specification. See TORQUE
SPECIFICATIONS .
