Instructions
1. First, park the car in accordance with the best safety practice, but DO
NOT apply the handbrake.
2. Next, jack up the car and remove the road wheel or wheels to expose
the brake calipers on which you are going to work.
3. Remove one or both of the caliper retaining fasteners and either pivot
the caliper away from the brake disc or detach it completely.
Note: Take great care at all times not to damage or snag the brake
hose as this may subsequently make the vehicle unsafe.
DO NOT allow the calliper to hang free by its flexible hose.
4. Remove the worn brake pads after first disconnecting the wear warning
wires if these are fitted.
5. Now select the appropriate drive key to suit the position. The drive key
should be as near as possible to the same diameter as the piston.
6. Fit the drive key to the force screw. To make this easier, the force screw
is magnetic and has two pins to engage the drive key positively.
Note: Some pistons need to be rewound under pressure. For this
purpose, use the reaction plate (Pic.1)
Lubricate the force screw with a few drops of oil before using it.
7. Slip the reaction plate over one arm of the T-bar on the force screw and
manoeuvre it on to the reaction body so that it rests against the flange
at the bottom of the body.
8. Now fit the reaction plate into the caliper fork (Pic.1) and tighten the
force screw by turning the T-bar clockwise until the piston is fully
rewound into the bore.
9. Finally, loosen the force screw by turning the T-bar anti-clockwise until
you can remove the force screw and reaction plate from the caliper.
10.Fit new brake pads, service the caliper and reassemble.

Introduction
This laser tool kit is a universal product suitable for use
on disc brake calipers on most European and Japanese
cars. Designed for rewind and push back pistions, it is an
essential tool for caliper servicing and makes brake pad
replacement quick and easy.
