Brake fluid is poisonous. Do not suck away brake fluid a mouth or through a hose at all. You store liquid in the capacity, casual access to which is excluded.


 REMOVAL

If the working cylinder of the drive of coupling is not replaced, the hose should not be disconnected. It is necessary to pay also attention that at the removed working cylinder it is impossible to press a coupling pedal, otherwise the rod will be squeezed out. If incidentally the piston is squeezed out, it is necessary to remove the cylinder and to carry out its assembly on HUNDRED. After installation of the drive of coupling into place it is necessary to remove from it air.

The piston in the working cylinder of coupling is allowed to be greased only with paste for brake ATE cylinders

1 Only if the hose was disconnected: Press a brake hose at the tank pincers, for example, of HAZET-4590-2.

If the hose is not disconnected, tie the cylinder a wire to a body.


 INSTALLATION

1 Clear a rod edge (the shooter on an illustration) and an adjacent surface to the lever of switching off of coupling and slightly grease with ESSO UNREX S2 lubricant.

2 Install the working cylinder on RKPP and fix by the moment 22 N • m. At the same time at the same time fix by a nut-2 holder I shlangat
3 Fix a hose on the cylinder by the moment of 17 N • m.
4 Remove a clip from the brake hose going to the working cylinder.
5 If the hose was disconnected, remove air from the coupling drive, address appropriate section.
6 Establish the lower cover of a motive compartment, address the Section Removal and installation of the lower cover of a motive compartment.
