Brake Bleeding - Mityvac MI6010 Manual Del Usuario

6 . . Insert .the .fluid .wand .into .the .reservoir .from .
which .you .intend .to .draw .fluid, .and .open .the .
ball .valve .to .allow .the .flow .of .fluid .
note: .Continual .operation .of .the .pump .is .
.
not .required .to .maintain .fluid .flow . .Fluid .will .
continue .to .flow .as .long .as .there .is .vacuum .
in .the .reservoir .and .the .shutoff .valve .is .open .
7 . . Once .the .required .amount .of .fluid .has .
been .evacuated .or .the .fluid .transfer .bottle .
is .full, .close .the .shutoff .valve .and .release .
the .vacuum .in .the .system .by .activating .the .
pressure .relief .lever .on .the .hand .pump .
8 . . If .no .future .use .of .the .evacuated .fluid .is .
intended, .dispose .of .it .properly, .clean .the .
fluid .transfer .bottle .assembly .with .denatured .
alcohol .or .a .common .household .cleaner, .
and .store .it .properly .

Brake Bleeding

Many .brake .systems .today .feature .Anti-Lock .
functions .and .electronic .controls .that .use .a .high .
pressure .electric .pump .to .keep .the .system . .
pressurized . .Bleeding .or .servicing .these .sys-
tems .requires .special .procedures .and .cautions . .
Always .observe .the .following .precautions .when .
servicing .Anti-Lock .brake .system:
• . ALWAYS .wear .safety .goggles .when .servic-
ing .high .pressure .brake .systems
• . ALWAYS .depressurize .the .ABS .system .
prior .to .adding .fluid .or .attempting .service .or .
repair
• . Unless .instructed .to .by .the .manufacturer's .
procedure, .NEVER .open .a .bleeder .valve .or .
loosen .a .hydraulic .line .while .the .ABS .system .
is .pressurized
• . ONLY .use .recommended .brake .fluids . .
DO .NOT .use .silicone .brake .fluid .in .ABS .
equipped .vehicles .
• . Always .refer .to .an .appropriate .repair .manual .
for .additional .information .on .Anti-Lock .brake .
systems .
depressurizing anti-lock Brake systems
Always .refer .to .the .vehicle .owner's .manual .or .
appropriate .service .manual .for .additional .infor-
mation .on .the .depressurizing .procedure . .The .
following .procedure .will .work .on .most .Anti-Lock .
brake .systems:
1 . . Ensure .ignition .switch .is .in .the .OFF .position .
or .disconnect .the .negative .battery .cable .
2 . . Pump .the .brake .pedal .25 .to .40 .times, .until .a .
noticeable .change .is .felt . .Continue .to .pump .
the .pedal .a .few .additional .times . .This .should .
eliminate .most .system .pressure .

Bleeding anti-lock Brake systems
• . Always .refer .to .the .vehicle .owner's .manual .
or .appropriate .service .manual .for .manufac-
turer's .brake .bleeding .procedure .
• . The .front .brakes .on .most .Anti-Lock .brake .
systems .may .be .bled .in .the .conventional .
manner .
• . Most .hydraulic .pump/pressure .accumulator .
units .are .fitted .with .a .bleeder .valve .which .
must .be .bled .when .the .system .has .lost .fluid .
or .is .being .replaced .
• . Some .vehicles .require .the .system .be .
pres¬surized .when .the .rear .brakes .are .bled .
• . Some .automotive .manufacturers .use .bleed-
ing .procedures .that .require .specialized .
equipment .
Pressure Bleeding
The .Fluid .Transfer .Accessory .Kit .is .appropriate .
for .use .as .a .pressure .bleeder .for .hydraulic .brake .
and .clutch .systems . .Additional .accessories .and .
adapters .may .be .required .and .are .available .from .
Mityvac .for .performing .this .function .
Pressure .bleeding .is .quick .and .easy .because: .
• . it .does .not .require .an .assistant
• . it .maintains .pressure .in .the .system .while .
bleeding .multiple .locations
• . it .keeps .the .master .cylinder .full .during .
bleeding
The .kit .can .also .be .used .to .identify .the .pres-
ence .of .leaks .in .an .automotive .hydraulic .brake .
or .clutch .system . .Leaks .are .indicated .by .a .
drop .in .pressure .over .a .few .seconds .or .min-
utes . .The .locations .of .leaks .can .be .pinpointed .
by .visible .seepage .of .fluid .from .the .system .
while .under .pressure .
WarninG: .Hydraulic/brake .fluid .is .hazardous .
and .corrosive . .Take .precautions .to .protect .
painted .surfaces .and .skin .from .exposure, .
and .read .and .follow .the .fluid .manufacturer's .
warnings .and .instructions . .Always .wear .safety .
goggles .when .working .with .brake .fluid .
Caution: .Use .your .Mityvac .Pressure .Bleeder .
only .as .directed . .Read .these .instructions .com-
pletely .before .attempting .to .service .brakes . .
The .Mityvac .Pressure .Bleeder .is .intended .
for .use .only .by .individuals .experienced .with .
bleeding .and .servicing .brake .systems . .If .you .
are .unsure .about .how .to .properly .service .
your .vehicles .brake .system, .consult .a .trained .
