[TR] Rear brake cylinder installation kit question

Dave,
The grease is for the inside of the outer rubber cup/dust seal. It helps
seal out moisture and dust from the area between the piston and the outer
seal. DO NOT PUT ANY INSIDE THE HYDRAULIC CYLINDER! But you knew that...
right? :-)

Hi,
I am getting ready to install new rear brake cylinders in my TR4A and
looking at the contents of the installation kit, there is a small pouch of
grease. I assume this grease is to lube the fulcrum point of the safety
brake arm but can I also use this to lube the adjuster? If I am totally
wrong, where is it used?
Thanks,
