After renewing brake pads, depress brake pedal firmly several

seated in their normal operating position.
To draw off brake fluid from brake fluid reservoir use a bleeder
♦
bottle which is used only for brake fluid. Brake fluid is poison‐
ous and must NOT be drawn off by sucking through a hose.
Check that the brake caliper moves freely by moving it from
♦
