6.

Unscrew the Torx T7 reservoir cover screw and remove the cover with the mem-

brane sitting below. Begin to 

slowly

press the oil contents of the filling syringe through

the system until no further air bubbles can be seen.

7.

Press the MAGURA ROYAL BLOOD oil through the system. Use a second syringe

to suck any overflowing oil at the reservoir. Then pull the filler syringe to suck oil back.
Repeat procedure 3-4 times and actuate CAREFULLY the lever blade simultaneously.

Make sure that there is always enough oil in the reservoir when you suck the
oil with the filling syringe!

8.

Actuaty in addition 

CAREFULLY

the lever blade to chase tiny air bubbles the hide

might hide within the circuit.

9.

Use the second syringe to suck any overflowing oil. The rag around the brake

lever and the caliper prevents overflowing oil from dropping down and contaminating
and killing the brake pads. Push 

the complete contents

of the filling syringe through

the system.

10.

The reservoir has to be full to the top before replacing the membrane and the

cover.

11.

Replace the cover with the membrane onto the reservoir. Oil will spill during this

procedure, therefore do not forget to place a rag around the brake lever! Tighten the
cover screw until the cover is flush with the reservoir. 

Use only the original Torx T7

bolt! Any other screw will lead to leaks, damages and failure of the whole
system! Tightening torque 0,6Nm/5 in.lbs

12.

Remove the syringe and screw in the 3mm allen bleeding screw.

Tightening torque: 2,5Nm/22 in.lbs. 

Re-position the brake caliper

(tightening 

torque 6Nm/51 in. lbs.). 

Re-install the brake pads and the wheel.

Always pull the lever blade several times (pump) until the brake pads touch

the rotor.

Always check for correct installation by activating the lever blade and

checking for eventual leaks.

Never contaminate brake pads with oil or grease this causing permanent

loss of brake power! Contaminated pads are definitely killed and MUST be 
replaced! A contaminated rotor can be cleaned with warm dishwater or alcohol.
