Hold snap-ring tool vertical over the rotor's upper snap ring. align the metal end of the snap-ring tool to the
indicator on the snap-ring's rubberized wiper seal (fig 7). use the palm of the other hand to drive the tool downward
& through the rubberized membrane. tool should penetrate about ½ inch into the snap-ring assembly (fig 8). While
holding the tool within the snap-ring, press the tool's handle downward and away from the center of the rotor. as the
tool is pressed downward, the snap-ring will lift from the rotor (fig 9). While using the tool to hold the snap-ring in
this elevated position, use the other hand to pull the snap-ring from the rotor. If the snap-ring's rubberized wiper seal
appears to be the only part that is lifting, the tool has not penetrated into the snap-ring far enough.
