Brake Fluid Level Check - Suzuki GA413 Service Manual

6) When bubbles stop, depress and hold brake pedal and tighten
bleeder plug.
Tightening Torque
(b): 7.5 N·m (0.75 kg-m, 5.5 lb-ft)
7) Then attach bleeder plug cap.
8) After completing bleeding operation, apply fluid pressure to
pipe line and check for leakage.
9) Replenish fluid into reservoir up to specified level.
10) Check brake pedal for "sponginess". If found spongy, repeat
entire procedure of bleeding.
BRAKE HOSE AND PIPE CHECK
The brake hose assembly should be checked for road hazard dam-
age, for cracks and chafing of the outer cover, for leaks and blisters.
A light and mirror may be needed for an adequate inspection. If any
of the above conditions are observed on the brake hose, it is neces-
sary to replace it.
Inspect the pipe for damage, cracks, dents and corrosion. If any de-
fect is found, replace it.

BRAKE FLUID LEVEL CHECK

Be sure to use particular brake fluid either as indicated on reservoir
cap of that vehicle or recommended in owner's manual which
comes along with that vehicle.
Use of any other fluid is strictly prohibited.
Fluid level should be between MIN and MAX lines marked on reser-
voir.
When warning light lights sometimes during driving, replenish fluid
to MAX line.
When fluid decreases quickly, inspect brake system for leakage.
Correct leaky points and then refill to specified level.
CAUTION:
Do not use shock absorber fluid or any other fluid which
contains mineral oil. Do not use a container which has
been used for mineral oil or a container which is wet from
water. Mineral oil will cause swelling and distortion of
rubber parts in hydraulic brake system and water mixed
into brake fluid will lower fluid boiling point. Keep all fluid

containers capped to prevent contamination.
