  1. To install, reverse the removal procedure.
  2. Use a SST (09581-2T100) when installing the brake caliper assembly.
    NOTE:
    • Connect an air hose (B) to the SST after confirming that the valve (A) of the SST is surely closed.
    • Input the SST in the caliper and press the caliper piston while opening the valve (A) of the SST slowly counter clock wise.
    • Close the valve (A) of the SST and disconnect the air hose (B); then, open the valve again to get the rest of air out and remove the SST from the caliper.
