CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT
Tech Tips
Use the same procedure for the RH and LH sides.
The procedures listed below are for the LH side.
PROCEDURE
INSTALL FRONT FLEXIBLE HOSE
Note
When replacing both the left and right front flexible hoses, as the left and right hoses each have a different shape, be sure to check the part number to confirm whether the hose is the left or right one before installing it.
Connect the flexible hose with a new gasket and a new union bolt to the disc brake cylinder.
Tech Tips
Insert the flexible hose lock securely into the lock hole in the cylinder.
| *1 | Flexible Hose Bracket |
| *2 | Flexible Hose Clamp |
| *3 | Sensor Clamp |
Set the flexible hose clamp on the flexible hose bracket.
Simultaneously perform the following: 1) hang the hook part of the sensor clamp labeled A on the flexible hose bracket labeled C; and 2) insert the hook part of the sensor clamp labeled B into the flexible hose bracket labeled D.
Install the bolt labeled C to secure the flexible hose clamp and sensor clamp.
Install the flexible hose with the bolt labeled D.
Set the flexible hose into place at the connecting point with the brake tube labeled A, and then install a new clip labeled B.
| *a | Torque Wrench Fulcrum Length |
Using a union nut wrench, connect the flexible hose to the brake tube labeled A while holding the flexible hose with a wrench.
Tech Tips
Calculate the torque wrench reading when changing the fulcrum length of the torque wrench.
When using union nut wrench (fulcrum length of 22 mm (0.8661 in.)) + torque wrench (fulcrum length of 162 mm (6.3779 in.)): 13.4 N*m (137 kgf*cm, 10 ft.*lbf)
Note
Do not bend or damage the brake tube.
Do not allow any foreign matter such as dirt and dust to enter the brake tube from the connecting point.
