met sections on the brake master cylinder.
If leakage exists, replace the grommet with a new one.
(Refer to the BR section.)
2. Disconnect the connecter of the brake fluid level switch.
3. Drain the brake fluid from the master cylinder.
(Refer to the “brake fluid change” section.)
4. Place a suitable piece of cloth under the master cylinder
to prevent the brake fluid from being splashed on the
painted surface.
5. Disconnect the brake pipes from the master cylinder.
CAUTION:
·
If the brake fluid is spilled inadvertently over the paint-
finish surface of the vehicle or resin made parts, imme-
diately wipe off the brake fluid and wash with fresh
water.

nuts.
