MASTER CYLINDER BLEEDING
The master cylinder used has no check valve, so if
bleeding is carried out by the following procedure,
bleeding of air from the brake pipeline will become
easier. (When brake fluid is not contained in the mas-
ter cylinder.)
1. Fill the brake fluid reservoir with the brake fluid.
2. Depress and hold the brake pedal.
3. Another operator closes the master cylinder
outlets with his fingers.
4. In this condition, release the brake pedal.
5. Repeat Steps 2 to 4 for 3 or 4 times to fill the
master cylinder with the brake fluid.
A15. CHECK BATTERY CONDITION
M6020203100355
CAUTION
•
If the battery fluid is below the LOWER
LEVEL, the battery could explode in using.
•
If the battery fluid is over the UPPER LEVEL,
leakage could result.
1. Inspect whether or not the battery fluid is between
the UPPER LEVEL and LOWER LEVEL marks.
2. Use a hydrometer and thermometer to check the
specific gravity of the battery fluid.
Standard value: 1.220
−
1.290 [20
°
C]
3. The specific gravity of the battery fluid varies with
the temperature, so use the following formula to
calculate the specific gravity for 20
°
C. Use the
calculated value to determine whether or not the
specific gravity is satisfactory.
D20 = (t - 20)
×
0.0007 + Dt
D20: Specific gravity of the battery fluid calcu-
lated for 20
°
C.
t: Actually measured temperature
Dt: Actually measured specific gravity
A16. REPLACE FUEL FILTER
M6020201901176
<Diesel-powered vehicles with steel fuel
filter case>
1. Remove the fuel tank cap to release the pressure
inside the fuel tank.
2. Disconnect the connector and the fuel hose, and
then remove the fuel filter assembly from the
bracket.
3. Remove the water level sensor.
