I never knew the information on this sheet. I don't know why it isn't supplied with every replacement calliper!

Oh, I see, so there basically is some slack between the handbrake screw and the piston, so the piston has to be manually rotated outwards after a finishing a rebuild to take the slack out.
Golden information, thanks a bunch!
