Service repair no - 70.25.02
Preparation
WARNING: Before bleeding the brake
system refer to general brake service
practice.
See General Brake Service
Practice
.
·During bleed procedure, brake fluid level must
not be allowed to fall below the MIN level.
·To bleed the hydraulic circuits, four bleed
nipples are provided, one at each caliper.
·There are two methods by which air can be
removed from the braking system:-
1. MANUAL BLEED PROCEDURE.
2. PRESSURE BLEED PROCEDURE.
Pressure bleed procedure
Purpose designed equipment for pressure filling and
bleeding of hydraulic systems may be used on Land
Rover vehicles. The equipment manufacturer's
instructions must be followed and the pressure must
not exceed 4.5 bar, 65 lb/in
2.
Manual bleed procedure
Equipment required
·Clean glass receptacle
