    WARNING:
    • When compressed air is blown into the caliper body, injury to a finger or other part from pinching could result from the piston springing up. When blowing in compressed air, do not place your fingers between the piston and caliper body when performing the work.
    CAUTION:
    • The piston could be damaged if blown out with great force. Blow the compressed air slowly to prevent the piston from suddenly popping out.
