General Information
The new STIERIUS Brake Bleeding Unit uses the latest technical advances in
bleeding and filling hydraulic brake systems. One man is all it takes to
operate and perform a complete brake bleeding service. Designed for all brake-
and hydraulic clutch systems.
This unit is built extremely well for industrial and shop use. It is universal
and can be used in many different applications. Any technician using our unit
will appreciate the value and ease of use.
Every device is subject to special tests and certification.
Therefore every unit does conform to the EEC-Guidelines. Certificates are available on
request.
Important!
Brake fluid which is contaminated with dirt or water can cause the brake
system to fail. It is recommended to use only brake fluid from its original
container.
The hygroscopic properties of brake fluid cause it to draw and take in
moisture from the air. This dangerously reduces the boiling point of the brake
fluid.
The heat generated by the brake system with moisture in the brake fluid,
causes steam bubbles to collect. This reduces the function and in extreme
cases can eliminate the effectiveness of the brakes all together.
Corrosion such as electrolosis is caused inside of brake systems with brake
fluid containing moisture.
The steam bubbles in the brake fluid carry in themselves oxygen which causes
oxidation an corrosion of the brake system.
It is therefore recommended to replace the old brake fluid with new fluid
annually or every 15,000 km.
By pressure bleeding the hydraulic brake system, the new fluid flushes the old
out of the system leaving you with the most thorough bleed available.
