the piston has a slot across its face that is accessable when you remove the pads
It should be horizontal
If you rotate the piston so the slot is at a 45 deg angle then the piston will push in
be sure and rotate it back to horizontal befor you install the new pads

Subject: [Peugeot-L] One More Time: Brake Help Required
Can anyone tell me how to back off the automatic ratchet handbrake
adjuster in the rear calipers of my '82 505, please? The Haynes book
is useless - although it DID tell me I have them! (Somewhere)
