Precautions for Brake System

Use brake fluid "DOT 3".
Never reuse drained brake fluid.
Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed on painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
To clean master cylinder parts, disc brake caliper parts or wheel cylinder parts, use clean brake fluid.
Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They will ruin rubber parts of hydraulic system.
Use flare nut wrench when removing and installing brake tubes.
Always torque brake lines when installing.
