AIR BLEEDING When any part of the hydraulic system has been disconnected or presence of air in the system is detected, the system must be bled. 1. Remove the dirt from the area around the top of the master cylinder, and fill the master cylinder with clean brake fluid, and keep the reservoir at least half full of fluid at all times during the operation. ***CAUTION*** Never re-use the brake fluid that has been bled from the hydraulic system. Do not spill any brake fluid on thepainted surface during the operation. 2. Remove the bleeder plug cap from the bleeder plug of the wheel cylinder, and connect a vinyl tube to the plug. Submerge the other end of the tube into a container half filled with clean brake fluid. ***Note***....Air Bleeding operation should be performed first from the bleeder plugs on the hydraulic cylinder plug and the top of the end plate if the brake booster is installed. Bleed the wheel cylinder with the longest hydraulic lines first. 3. Depress the brake pedal slowly several times to bleed the air, and with the brake pedal depressed, loosen the bleeder plug 1/3 to 1/2 of a turn, then close the plug immediately. 4. Repeat this operation until the brake fluid flows into the container without any trace of air. 5. Install the bleeder plug cap onto the plug, and replenish the brake fluid into the reservoir up to the specified level. |
