4.10.2 Bleeding
It is important to thoroughly bleed the brake system. Otherwise the system function may be
unreliable and the brakes may fail. There are two main reasons for air entering the brake system:
1. Disconnected or loose hoses
2. Insufficient quantity of brake fluid
Fig. Brake system bleeding
1- Bleeding screw
Procedure:
1. Loosen the bleeding screw in the brake cylinder
2. Step repeatedly on the pedal to bleed the brake system
3. Tighten the screw
4. Repeat several times or until the pedal offers resistance against motion (feels firm)
NOTE
If the brake efficiency remains unsatisfactory after bleeding or if the pedal motion is excessive, fill
with brake fluid and bleed the system again. Continue untill all the air is out of the system
