BMA/BMB-Tool Tool description
Intended use
1. Check the package delivered to ensure that it is not damaged.
Should you identify any damage to the package, then open the package
in the presence of the delivery service and check the BMA/BMB Tool
for hidden damage. Any transport damage to the package supplied and
damage to the BMA/BMB Tool shall be registered in a damage report
by the delivery service.
2. Open the package supplied and check for completeness based on the
delivery slip.
3. Remove the BMA/BMB Tool from the packaging.
4. Check the BMA/BMB Tool for damage and completeness.
2.2 Intended use
The BMA/BMB Tool (Brake Maintenance A or B model) is a brake
maintenance tool for filling and bleeding hydraulic systems containing
brake fluid in motor vehicles, e.g. brake or clutch circuits. The BMA/BMB
Tool may only be used with DOT 3, DOT 4 or DOT 5.1 (glycol-based) brake
fluid. Hydraulic fluid based on mineral oil or DOT 5 brake fluid (silicone-
based) is not suitable for the BMA/BMB Tool and must therefore not be
used. As brake fluid is very hydroscopic (absorbs and retains moisture),
the BMA/BMB Tool must be stored and operated in dry conditions.
For maintenance of the hydraulic system, the BMA/BMB Tool is connected
to the associated brake fluid reservoir using a suitable adapter. A
pressurised electric pump delivers new brake fluid from the BMA Tool or
BMB Tool to the brake fluid reservoir. The supply pressure can be
continuously adjusted from 0 to 2.8 bar. The brake fluid current pulsates
during the bleeding phase of the hydraulic system. These fluctuations
enable a complete bleeding process, as even the smallest amounts of air
or moisture at the pipe connections are carried away.
After switching off the electric pump, the pressure in the brake fluid
reservoir reduces and the correct brake fluid level is automatically set.
If the brake fluid container is emptied to the minimum filling level, the
pump switches off automatically. This ensures that air never gets into the
hydraulic system.
