Manual Instruksi Selang Rem Hareup NISSAN Primera FT0394

1. Bubuka

This manual provides essential information for the proper installation, operation, and maintenance of the FT0394 Front Brake Hose for NISSAN Primera vehicles. The brake hose is a critical component of your vehicle's hydraulic braking system, responsible for transmitting brake fluid pressure from the brake lines to the brake calipers or wheel cylinders. Proper functioning of this part is paramount for vehicle safety.

WARNING: Brake system components are vital for vehicle safety. Installation and maintenance should only be performed by qualified automotive technicians. Improper installation or maintenance can lead to brake failure, serious injury, or death.

2. Setup jeung Instalasi

Installation of the FT0394 front brake hose requires specialized tools and knowledge. It is strongly recommended that this procedure be carried out by a certified mechanic.

2.1 Cék Pra-Pamasangan

• Ensure the replacement hose (FT0394) is the correct part for your NISSAN Primera model.
• Inspect the new hose for any signs of damage, kinks, or manufacturing defects before installation.
• Gather all necessary tools, including wrenches, brake fluid, a brake bleeder kit, and safety equipment (gloves, eye protection).

2.2 Installation Steps (Professional Guidance Recommended)

1. Safely lift and support the vehicle on jack stands. Remove the wheel(s) to access the brake assembly.
2. Locate the old brake hose. Place a drain pan beneath the connection points to catch any leaking brake fluid.
3. Carefully disconnect the old brake hose from the caliper/wheel cylinder and the hard brake line. Be prepared for brake fluid to leak.
4. Remove any retaining clips or brackets securing the old hose.
5. Install the new FT0394 brake hose, ensuring it is routed correctly and not twisted or kinked.
6. Securely attach the new hose to the caliper/wheel cylinder and the hard brake line. Use new copper washers where applicable and tighten to the manufacturer's specified torque settings.
7. Re-attach any retaining clips or brackets.
8. Refill the brake fluid reservoir with the correct type of brake fluid as specified by NISSAN.
9. Bleed the brake system thoroughly to remove all air. This is a critical step to ensure proper brake function.
10. Inspect all connections for leaks while applying pressure to the brake pedal.
11. Reinstall the wheel(s) and lower the vehicle.
12. Perform a road test in a safe area to confirm proper brake operation before normal driving.

3. Prinsip Operasi

The FT0394 front brake hose functions as a flexible conduit within the hydraulic braking system. When the brake pedal is pressed, hydraulic pressure is generated in the master cylinder. This pressure is transmitted through rigid brake lines and then through the flexible brake hoses to the brake calipers (front wheels) or wheel cylinders (rear wheels, if applicable). The flexible nature of the hose allows for the movement of the suspension and steering components without compromising the hydraulic connection.

A properly functioning brake hose ensures consistent and reliable transfer of brake fluid pressure, resulting in effective braking performance. Any compromise to the hose's integrity can lead to a loss of brake pressure and reduced braking capability.

4. Pangropéa

Regular inspection of your vehicle's brake hoses is crucial for safety. It is recommended to inspect the brake hoses during routine vehicle maintenance, such as tire rotations or oil changes.

4.1 Titik Inspeksi

• Inspeksi Visual: Check the entire length of the hose for cracks, abrasions, bulges, or signs of wear.
• Bocor: Look for any signs of brake fluid leakage around the hose connections or along the hose itself.
• Kinks or Twists: Ensure the hose is not kinked or twisted, which can restrict fluid flow.
• Rubbing: Check if the hose is rubbing against any suspension components, chassis, or wheels, which can cause premature wear.
• Korosi: Inspect the metal fittings for rust or corrosion.

4.2 Ngagantian

Brake hoses should be replaced immediately if any signs of damage or wear are observed. Even without visible damage, brake hoses can degrade internally over time. Consult your NISSAN Primera's service manual for recommended replacement intervals, typically every 5-7 years or 60,000-100,000 miles, depending on driving conditions and manufacturer recommendations.

5. Cara ngungkulan

If you experience any issues with your braking system, especially after brake hose replacement, it is imperative to have the vehicle inspected by a professional immediately.

5.1 Common Symptoms of Brake Hose Issues

• Pedal Rem Spons: Often indicates air in the brake lines, which can occur if the system was not properly bled after hose replacement, or if there's a leak.
• Cairan rem bocor: Visible fluid around the hose or connections is a clear sign of a problem.
• Ngurangan kinerja ngerem: If the vehicle takes longer to stop or requires more pedal effort, it could indicate a problem with the brake system, including the hoses.
• Pulling to One Side During Braking: Could be caused by a restricted brake hose on one side, preventing proper fluid flow to the caliper.

5.2 Aksi

If you observe any of these symptoms, stop driving the vehicle immediately and arrange for professional inspection and repair. Do not attempt to drive with compromised brakes.

6. Spésifikasi

7. Tips pamaké

• Always use new copper washers when connecting brake hoses to calipers or hard lines to ensure a leak-free seal.
• Ensure the brake fluid reservoir is topped up with the correct type of brake fluid before and after bleeding the system.
• After installation, double-check that the hose does not rub against any moving parts or the tire when the steering is turned lock-to-lock and the suspension is articulated.
• Consider replacing both front brake hoses simultaneously, even if only one shows signs of wear, to ensure balanced braking performance and consistent component age.

8. Garansi jeung Rojongan
