GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS

1. Be aware that as the pistons are pushed back into their cylinders, hydraulic oil will be
forced back into the reservoir . Take precautions to clean up any overspill. Any spillage
must be thoroughly cleaned away. NEVER remove trhe oil reservoir filter.

2. Do not operate the brake pedal with the brake pads removed.

3. Work on one brake assembly at a time, i.e. complete the installation of the brake
pads before moving tom another wheel hub.

WARNING:

The vehicle must be properly prepared, and adequately supported on axle

stands, on firm level ground, before any operation using this tool is performed.

ASSEMBLY

Assembly of the various components is
according to the illustration... depending
upon the applications, as shown
below.

2. Calipers with no direct access to the piston

i.e. closed type of caliper.
Assemble as shown, then turn the handle clockwise to push the piston back into

the cylinder.

NOTE:

1. Before shaft 5 can be threaded into plate 3, the clip 12 must be removed.
Ensure it is replaced, in order to lock the shaft to the plate, before use.

2. When the threaded shaft is turned in order to position the two plates between the i
inner face of the caliper and the piston, the assembly may ‘jam’. Squeezing the
ends of the plates together and maintaining pressure, wil l overcome this problem

3. Calipers with piston on a screw thread

METHODS OF USE

1. Calipers withdirect access to the piston

Assemble as shown, then turn the handle clockwise to push the piston back into
the cylinder.

Assemble as shown, selecting the appropriate piston adapter (item 6 - 11) to fit
on to the square drive on the end of the Threaded shaft (1).

Ensure the pegs on the piston adapter fit snugly in the coresponding holes in the
piston, then turn the handle clockwise to screw the piston back into the cylinder.

NOTE:
When the brake pads have been replaced, ensure the hydraulic oil reservoir is

topped up before pressing the brake pedal, and if several applications of the
pedal are required to restore the pads to their correct position, check the level
before each application or have an assistant top up the level as it recedes.
