BRAKE BLEEDING AND CHANGING BRAKE FLUID
1. Connect the brake bleeder to compressed air supply. Min 80psi - Max 130psi
2. Check the level of brake fl uid in the reservoir and add fl uid if necessary. If fl uid is being changed, evacuate reservoir and fi ll
with new fl uid.
3. Mount the rubber fi tting on to the bleed screw/valve and hang bleeder unit at a point higher than the bleed screw/valve.
4. Activate trigger of brake bleeder and hold for 3 to 4 seconds to allow full vacuum to build in canister. With trigger held on,
open bleed screw/valve and fl uid will be drawn from the system.
5. Allow fl uid to be drawn until new fl uid is visible, close and tighten bleed screw/valve and remove the rubber fi tting - when
the hose is empty release the trigger.
6. Repeat the above procedure at each wheel.
NOTE: Refer to specifi c procedures and instructions from the vehicle manufacturers service manual
7. At completion of bleeding, remove and empty canister to prevent accidental fl uid spillage.
IMPORTANT NOTES
• Check and maintain the level of brake fl uid in the reservoir after each wheel.
• Before bleeding, remove and clear bleed screw, apply copper or silicone grease to minimize air leaks around the bleed
screw thread and to prevent seizing in place.
• Vacuum bleeding may cause a small amount of air to be drawn past the brake bleed screw thread giving the operator a
false impression that air is being drawn from the system. This does not affect bleeding of the brake system.
• After bleeding, check brake performance.
• Maintenance: to maintain bleeder unit in good working order, periodically wash all components with water only.
Not to be used with fl ammable liquids.
Not to be used with hot liquids.
