BLEEDING THE HYDRAULIC BRAKE SYS-
TEM
Bleed the hydraulic brake system whenev-
er:
the system was disassembled,
a brake hose was loosened or removed,
the brake fluid level is very low,
brake operation is faulty.
1. Remove:
reservoir cap
1
diaphragm
2
Be careful not to spill any brake fluid or allow
the brake master cylinder reservoir or brake
fluid reservoir to overflow.
When bleeding the hydraulic brake system,
make sure that there is always enough brake
fluid before applying the brake. Ignoring this
precaution could allow air to enter the hydrau-
lic brake system, considerably lengthening the
bleeding procedure.
If bleeding is difficult, it may be necessary to let
the brake fluid settle for a few hours. Repeat
the bleeding procedure when the tiny bubbles
in the hose have disappeared.
