5.
With the brake lever depressed, open and close the bleed
nipple in rapid succession (for approximately 0.5 seconds each
time) to release any air bubbles which may be in the calipers.
Repeat this procedure about 2 to 3 times.
Then tighten the bleed nipple again.
Tightening torque:
0.3 - 0.5 N·m {2.7 - 4.4 in. lbs.}
6.
Fill the reservoir tank with oil and then replace the reservoir tank cover. Fill the reservoir tank to
overflowing with oil while replacing the cover to ensure that no air bubbles remain inside the
reservoir tank. In addition, be careful not to get any oil on parts such as the rotor and brake pads.
7.
Return the brake lever to its original position.
Note:
Do not use brake fluid fillers, as they can cause small bubbles of air to form, and such
bubbles can cause severe drops in braking performance.
