Shimano 6800 brake assembly?

 39 Hi all,
I have stripped my Ultegra calipers down after riding through winter to clean and lube the pivot points. After some interruptions, I have forgotten the order of washers/bearings!!!
Does anyone know where I can find a complete parts diagram? I have downloaded a workshop manual but it on shows set up, not a complete parts breakdown. I guess that Shimano never intended these to be fully stripped.
There are 2 tiny bearings with washers either side, I'm having trouble finding which way these go in.
Thanks for any help.

Charlie.

Thank you for posting that, Gordini.
I had seen that diagram but the dual pivots are not shown in bits.
Top tip: Don't take these calipers apart!

Hi Charlie, have a look at this, it may help a bit.... http://cycle.shimano-eu.com/publish/content/global_cycle/en/nl/index/com...
It's not the full exploded diagram but it is all that's about and anyway if you can't get them back together - new kit is always GOOD.
