2. Apply the brakes until the oil comes out without air bubbles.
3. Tighten the pipe before releasing the brakes.

WARNING! The circuit must always be re-primed after dismantling the hydraulic brake line.
Every 250 hours - Parking brake check
Check the following points:
Parking brake lever: If you can pull it back further than 90° (to the
vertical), using a force of around 25kg, then the cable is too long and
should be shortened.
Parking brake cable: It should be slack when the brake is released.
If this is not the case, it should be lengthened.
Correct length: Brake released, the cable should be stiff but not taut.
The length of the cable is adjusted by turning the nut inside the chassis.
Condition of the brake cable (wear or damage). Replace all worn or
damaged parts.
