Brake Master Cylinder - Assembly

ASSEMBLY





1. Install a NEW vacuum seal (2) on the master cylinder mounting flange (1) making sure the seal fits squarely in its groove.





2. If the reservoir is being replaced, align the brake fluid level switch with its mounting hole on the left side of the master cylinder brake fluid reservoir. Push the switch into the fluid reservoir until the switch retaining tabs (1) are expanded on the other side of the reservoir (2), locking it in place.





3. Lubricate the reservoir mounting area with fresh clean brake fluid. Place the reservoir (1) in position over the grommet seals in the master cylinder (2). Slide the reservoir into the grommet seals by firmly pressing down on the fluid reservoir. Once installed, make sure fluid reservoir is touching the top of both grommet seals.





4. Install the fluid reservoir mounting screw (3). Tighten the screw to 5.5 Nm (48 in. lbs.).
5. Thoroughly bleed the master cylinder before installing it. Procedures
