Changing The Fluid - Husqvarna TC 250 2010 Workshop Manual

BRAKES

Changing the fluid

Brake fluid should be checked and changed as per the "Maintenance Chart"
(see Section B), or earlier if contaminated with debris or water.
Do not change brake fluid in the rain or with a strong wind.
Use only fluid taken from a sealed container (DOT 4). Never reuse
brake fluid.
Avoid the ingress of contaminants such as dirt, water, etc. into the
reservoir.
Do not keep the reservoir open without its cover longer than neces-
sary; this would increase the risk of contamination.
Handle the fluid with care to avoid damage to painted parts.
Do not mix two brands of fluid. This would reduce boil-over point,
leading to loss of braking efficiency or degrading of rubber parts.
Replacement procedure is as follows:
- Take the rubber cap off the bleed valve (1) or (1A).
- Attach a clear plastic hose to the calliper bleed valve and place the other end
of the hose in a vessel.
