Refitting

NOTE: When fitting a new brake caliper, the latter is supplied to Parts with no brake fluid; it is therefore necessary to operate as follows:

NOTE: - slacken the bleed screw;

NOTE: - insert the end of a transparent tube in the hole on the bleed screw;

NOTE: - using a normal container with recommended brake fluid, insert brake fluid into the caliper until air bubbles emerge from the threaded hole where the hose is connected;

NOTE: - tighten the bleed screw.

Refit the front brake caliper complete with pads in its seating, tighten the bolts to the specified torque and fit the protective plugs.
