Brake highway / hose / main cylinder of a brake

General description

Assembly of the main cylinder

For the vehicles equipped with additional system of restriction of the movement "air bag" (the safety airbag):

  • Service of components of the airbag of safety ("air bag") and near them or works with an electrical wiring have to be performed only by the authorized dealer of SUZUKI. Non-compliance with security measures can lead to inadvertent operation of system or put system out of action. Any of these two conditions can lead to a serious trauma.
  • Works on maintenance should be begun not earlier than in 90 seconds after the ignition switch is transferred to situation "LOCK/ZAMOK" and the negative cable is disconnected from the battery. Otherwise the system can be activated by reserve energy of the module of sensors and diagnostics.

All fastenings of brakes are important elements of fastening and can influence work of the vital details and systems, and/or to affect considerably repair price. They should be replaced with the details having the same number or equivalent if such replacement is necessary. Do not use for replacement of a detail of the worst quality or substitutes. It is necessary to observe the specified values of torque of an inhaling at assembly to provide long service life of all details. It is not necessary to use welding as it can lead to extensive damages and weakening of metal.

The main cylinder has two pistons and three cuffs of the piston. Its hydraulic pressure is created in primary ("a" in drawings) and auxiliary ("b") by cameras. The hydraulic pressure created in primary camera ("a") affects brakes of forward wheels (in the vehicle without ABS on back brakes).

Similarly hydraulic pressure created in the auxiliary camera ("b") affects brakes of back wheels (for vehicles without ABS on forward brakes).

Replace all components included in a repair kit for service of the main cylinder. Grease rubber parts with pure fresh brake fluid to facilitate assembly. Do not use production compressed air with lubricant for brake details as it can damage rubber elements. If any hydraulic components are removed or brake highways are disconnected, pit air from the brake system. The specified values of torque of an inhaling belong to dry, ungreased fastenings.
