NOTE:
• If an automatic refill system is not used, add
brake fluid when the fluid level in the reservoir is
low.
• Check the fluid level often while bleeding the
brake to prevent air from being pumped into the
system.
• When using a brake bleeding tool, follow the
manufacturer's operating instructions.
• If air is entering the bleeder from around the
bleed valve threads, seal the threads with teflon
tape.
