Abstract

According to the invention, the communication between the supply orifice (40,41) and the corresponding pressure chambers (38,39) of the master-cylinder (11) is tested while the stop (25) defining the rest position of the piston (15) of the servo is being displaced, and this stop (25) is finally immobilized by crimping when the correct position of the stop has thus been found.
