– Cut through the brake line in a suitable location (straight, freely
accessible piece) with the pipe cutter -2-.
– Remove the part to be replaced.
– Degrease the surface of the brake line.
– Clamp the brake line in the gripping pliers -4- tight enough, so
that it protrudes approx. 50 mm out of the plastic chuck jaws.
– Tension the peeler -3- in a boring machine and place it onto
the brake line.
– Peel off the coating of the brake line using the slower speed
of the boring machine and by exerting a slight pressure against
the brake line.
The length of the peeling is determined by the stop in the peeler.
– Separate the peeler from the brake line and remove peel res‐
idues.
– Remove the gripping pliers and push the pipe screw -D- onto
the brake line.
– Push the brake line -B- against the stop -A- in the flaring tool.
Note
When tightening the Allen screws the brake line must lie against
the stop, otherwise the flaring head does not function properly.
– Pre-tension the brake line in the flaring tool so that the brake
line can no longer be moved. Fold up the stop -A- and then
tighten the Allen screws crosswise completely with the offset
screwdriver -C-.
