NOTICE:
* Release the vacuum from the booster by depressing the brake pedal several times. Then remove the brake master cylinder from the brake booster.

(2) Do not scratch or damage the circumference of the piston. For the seal to function correctly, all sliding surfaces must not have any damage.

(5) Apply the supplied grease to the outer diameter of the piston and the inner diameter of the brake booster.
