Refitting
- Upon refitting, perform the operation but in reverse order.
- Tighten the hydraulic line to the prescribed torque and purge the system.
- When the operation is over, tighten the brake fluid bleed screw to the prescribed torque.
WARNING
THE BRAKE FLUID IS HYGROSCOPIC, THAT IS, IT ABSORBS MOISTURE FROM THE SUR-
ROUNDING AIR. IF THE LEVEL OF MOISTURE IN THE FLUID EXCEEDS A GIVEN VALUE,
BRAKING EFFICIENCY WILL BE REDUCED. THEREFORE, ALWAYS USE FLUID FROM SEALED
CONTAINERS. UNDER NORMAL DRIVING AND CLIMATIC CONDITIONS YOU SHOULD CHANGE
THIS LIQUID EVERY TWO YEARS. IF THE BRAKES ARE USED INTENSELY AND/OR IN HARSH
CONDITIONS, CHANGE THE FLUID MORE FREQUENTLY.
CAUTION
WHEN CARRYING OUT THE OPERATION, BRAKE FLUID MAY LEAK FROM BETWEEN THE
BLEED SCREW AND ITS SEAT ON THE CALLIPER. CAREFULLY DRY THE CALLIPER AND DE-
GREASE THE DISC SHOULD THERE BE BRAKE FLUID ON IT.
CAUTION
ALWAYS USE NEW COPPER WASHERS.
