eye goggles, gloves and clothing. If brake uid contacts your eyes, consult a physician
immediately.
CAUTION
When reassembling the caliper, work with clean hands, tools, and parts. Perform the
reassembly on a clean, neat surface. Dirt or contaminants on component parts will

the correct O-Ring Kit for your BRAND of caliper (Gremica or Knott). Refer to your
illustrated parts manual for correct part number.
