6. Clear a surface of the piston of dirt and press the piston into the brake cylinder.

Notes:

On the front wheel, the piston of the cylinder is pressed in relatively easily, with a simple uniform pressure through a block of wood. But in order to put the rear piston of the cylinder in place, it must be screwed in. For this, grooves are located on the piston. To screw in the piston, a special tool is used to press in the pistons of the brake cylinders.

Or, it can be replaced with a bicycle or other key, with suitable paws for the piston grooves.

Useful advice:

At the moment of indentation, it is necessary to control the level of brake fluid in the expansion tank. If the pads are worn and the caliper piston(s) have come out nearly to their full height when pushed in, the brake fluid can rise up in the reservoir and spill out.

Remove excess fluid from the expansion tank with a syringe.

7. Install shims, new brake pads and clips in the reverse order of removal.

Note:

Lubricate the caliper guides with special grease (supplied in repair kits or purchased separately).

Warning:

Use the correct lubricant for the caliper guides. Do not use anti-squeal, graphite or other lubricants. They do not match the characteristics of this node. Carefully study the instructions that come with the lubricant if you purchase it separately.

Useful advice:

Before replacing the Mitsubishi Outlander brake pads, use a metal brush to clean the parts of the brake mechanism from dirt and corrosion, especially the seats of the brake pads in the caliper guide plates and the guide pads.

8. Before driving, check the brakes for proper operation.
