Connect a commercially available brake bleeder to
the rear caliper bleed valve.
Repeat step 1 and 2 for rear caliper bleed valve.
Bleed the hydraulic system.
If a brake bleeder is not available, perform the fol-
lowing procedure.
Connect a bleed hose to the left front caliper lower
bleed valve.
1. Pump the brake pedal several times quickly, then
push the brake pedal all the way down, loosen
the left front caliper lower bleed valve and
loosen the bleed valve 1/4 of turn.
Wait several seconds and close the bleed valve
Release the brake pedal slowly and wait several
seconds after it reaches the end of its travel.
• Do not release the pedal until the bleed valve has
been closed.
2. Repeat the above procedures until a sufficient
amount of the fluid flows out from the left front
caliper lower bleed valve.
It is not a problem if the fluid flowing out from
the left front lower bleed valve contains air bub-
bles because the lines will be bled later.
Connect a commercially available brake bleeder to
the rear caliper bleed valve.
Repeat step 1 and 2 for the rear caliper bleed valve.
Bleed the hydraulic system.
