HYDRAULIC LINE AND HOSE REPLACEMENT

Read DANGER and WARNING on page 6a-1.
∆
WARNING
• To perform any of the following procedures, the hydraulic system must be opened. As a
result, the brakes must be bled after the correct reinstallation of the brake components.
Failure to bleed the brakes could result in decreased braking performance due to air being
trapped in the hydraulic system. Use only DOT 5 brake fluid. See Bleeding the Hydraulic Brake
System on page 6a-33.
• Prior to servicing hydraulic brakes, thoroughly clean the vehicle, paying particular attention
to areas immediately surrounding hydraulic connections, to prevent dirt or debris from
entering system.
