      • Do not strike or pinch the master cylinder piston, or cause any damage to the master cylinder piston by any other means.

      • When installing the brake master cylinder sub-assembly to the brake booster assembly, or when removing the brake master cylinder sub-assembly from the brake booster assembly, make sure that the brake master cylinder sub-assembly is kept horizontal or with its tip facing downward (the master cylinder piston is facing upward) to prevent the master cylinder piston from falling out.

      • Do not allow any foreign matter to contaminate the master cylinder piston. If any foreign matter gets on the master cylinder piston, remove it by using a piece of cloth and then apply an even layer of lithium soap base glycol grease around the circumference (sliding part) of the master cylinder piston.

      • Do not use any other types of grease.
