bleeder screw and release the brake pedal. Loosen the bleeder screw again, press down on the brake pedal, hold
pedal down and tighten the bleeder screw, release pedal. Do Not release the brake pedal until the bleeder screw is

brake line. Repeat the procedure on the opposite side of the unit, then on the front.

The park brake applies the brakes to both rear wheels.
To engage the brake, pull up on the lever until park brake is applied (the park brake lever will be at an approximate 45

the lever to it's original position.

With the park brake released (brake lever down) tighten the adjustment nut a couple of turns and apply the park
brake, continue adjustment until the brake lever is at an approximate 45 when the brake is applied.
