Brake Pad Installation Procedure

1. Install brake pads properly. Be sure pads are securely positioned in the caliper.
2. Flush system with fresh brake fluid.
3. Check all hydraulic parts for excess wear and tear.

7. Inspect calipers for freedom of movement. Lubricate where necessary.

Burnishing Instructions

2. Make an additional 2 to 3 hard stops from approximately 40 to 45 mph.
3. DO NOT DRAG BRAKES!
