Purging Brake Lines
For the hydraulic brake system to operate safely,
the brake system must be purged of air in the
lines and reservoir.
To bleed the air will require two people to perform
the following procedure.
1. Place a drain pan under the brake caliper to
catch the fluid.
2. Open the bleeder valve ½ turn counter
clockwise.
3. Squeeze the brake lever to expel air from the
system.
4. While holding the brake lever, close the
bleeder valve.
5. Repeat steps 2 through 4 until the brake fluid
coming from the bleeder valve is a solid
stream without any air, then close the valve
and replace rubber protection cap.
6. Test the brake system by squeezing the
lever, the lever should feel firm and stop
without fading.
