as possible through the strainer -1-.

♦
The strainer in brake fluid reservoir must remain in place.

pleting the extraction (the brake fluid level in the reservoir must
be even with the lower edge of the strainer).

♦
The bleeder hose must be firmly seated on bleeder valve so
that no air can enter the brake system.

There must always be sufficient brake fluid in the brake res‐
ervoir so that no air can enter the brake system through the
reservoir.
