- Remove Old Brake Pads: Take out the worn brake pads.
- Identify Piston Type: Observe the face of the brake piston to determine the required adapter pattern.
- Select Adapter: Choose the adapter from the kit that matches the piston's pattern.
- Công cụ lắp ráp: Attach the selected adapter to the threaded shaft of the main tool body. Ensure it is securely seated.
5. Hướng dẫn vận hành
This tool is designed for brake pistons that require both rotation and compression for retraction. The Model 1015 features a right-hand thread for this operation.
- Position the Tool: Place the pressure plate of the tool against the caliper body. Align the chosen adapter with the notches on the brake piston.
- Engage the Piston: Gently turn the T-handle clockwise to engage the adapter with the piston's notches. Ensure the adapter is firmly seated and not slipping.
- Retract the Piston: Continue to turn the T-handle clockwise. This action will simultaneously rotate and push the piston back into the caliper bore. Apply steady, even pressure.
- Monitor Piston Retraction: Observe the piston as it retracts. It should move smoothly without excessive force. If resistance is encountered, stop and re-check the alignment and adapter fit.
- Full Retraction: Continue until the piston is fully retracted, creating enough space for the new, thicker brake pads.
- Remove the Tool: Once the piston is retracted, turn the T-handle counter-clockwise to release the pressure and remove the tool from the caliper.
- Install New Pads and Caliper: Install the new brake pads and reassemble the brake caliper according to your vehicle's service manual.

KHAI THÁC. Xử lý sự cố
If you encounter issues while using the tool, consider the following:
- Piston not retracting or difficult to turn:
- Ensure the correct adapter is used and properly engaged with the piston notches.
- Verify that the caliper slide pins are not seized, preventing the caliper from moving freely.
- Check for any obstructions or damage to the piston or caliper bore.
- Confirm the tool's threaded shaft is adequately lubricated.
- Adapter slipping off the piston:
- Re-align the adapter carefully with the piston notches.
- Ensure the adapter is fully seated before applying significant pressure.
- The adapter might be incorrect for your specific piston type. Double-check your vehicle's requirements.
