3.3. BLEEDING INSTRUCTIONS
3.3.1
BLEEDING THE FRONT BRAKE
Any air trapped in the hydraulic circuit will act as a cushion and take up most of the pressure applied by the master
cylinder; this will impair the operation of the brake callipers and reduce braking efficiency.
A spongy feel of the brake lever and loss of braking mean that there is air in the circuit.
DANGER
This is a dangerous condition that makes the vehicle unsafe to ride; each time the brakes are removed,
it is indispensable to bleed the hydraulic circuit once the brakes have been refitted and the braking
system is back to normal operating conditions.
Brake fluid is an irritant. Avoid contact with eyes or skin.
In the event of accidental contact, wash affected body parts thoroughly. In the event of accidental
contact with eyes, contact an eye specialist or seek medical advice.
WARNING
Handle with care: contact with brake fluid will alter the chemical properties of paintwork, plastic and
rubber parts, etc.
Wear latex gloves when servicing.
CAUTION
The following procedure applies to both front brake callipers.
Place the vehicle on level ground before beginning the bleeding procedure.
While bleeding the hydraulic circuit, top up reservoir with brake fluid as required. Make sure that there is always some
brake fluid in the reservoir throughout the process, see 3.1.1 (BRAKE FLUID).
