Warning! Remember that the dust generated during operation of the brake mechanisms may contain asbestos, which is extremely harmful to human health. Never blow off dust with compressed air or inhale it - wear a protective mask or respirator when servicing the mechanisms. Never use gasoline or petroleum-based solvents to wipe the brake system components - use only branded cleaning agents or methyl alcohol!
