Should be performed with the started engine and connected brake pedals according to the following
procedure:
1. Remove the rubber cap, install the hose on the bleeder screw (1) and immerse the other end to the bottom
of the transparent vessel partly filled with the oil that forms the filling of the gearbox. The bleeder screw must

place the vessel at least 300 mm above the bleeder screw.
2. Release the bleeder screw by 1/4 revolution max.
3. Press down the connected brake pedals and tighten the bleeder screw.
4. Release the brake pedal and repeat the procedure until no air bubbles come out of hose.
5. Remove the hose from the bleeder screw and install the rubber cap back on it.
