the lower piston screws in with an allen key, reconect handbrake before doing this.

piston needs to be wound in- think its 8mm allen size in middle of piston, press piston in whilst turning middle of piston [middle should turn without outer part of piston turning] if it is siezed either overhaul or renew calliper -i think it turns clockwise.if its a long way out cut down allen key and use spanner on it
