BRAKE SYSTEM AIR BLEEDING
WARNING
Bleed the brake system if:

The system has been disassembled.

A brake hose has been loosened or
removed.

The brake fluid is very low.

The brake operation is faulty.
A dangerous loss of braking performance
may occur if the brake system is not prop-
erly bled.
1. Remove:

Reservoir cap

Diaphragm

Reservoir float (front brake)
2. Bleed:

Brake fluid
ÈFront
ÉRear
Air bleeding steps:
a. Add proper brake fluid to the reservoir.
b. Install the diaphragm. Be careful not to
spill any fluid or allow the reservoir to
overflow.
c. Connect the clear plastic tube 2 tightly to
the caliper bleed screw 1.
d. Place the other end of the tube into a con-
tainer.
e. Slowly apply the brake lever or pedal sev-
eral times.
f. Pull the lever in or push down on the
pedal. Hold the lever or pedal in position.
g. Loosen the bleed screw and allow the
lever or pedal to travel towards its limit.
h. Tighten the bleed screw when the lever or
pedal limit has been reached; then
release the lever or pedal.

If bleeding is difficult, it may be necessary to
let the brake fluid system stabilize for a few
hours. Repeat the bleeding procedure when
the tiny bubbles in the system have disap-
peared.
j. Add brake fluid to the level line on the res-
ervoir.
WARNING
Check the operation of the brake after
bleeding the brake system.

WARNING

Use only designated quality brake fluid to
avoid poor brake performance.

Refill with same type and brand of brake
fluid; mixing fluids could result in poor
brake performance.

Be sure that water or other contaminants
do not enter master cylinder when refill-
ing.

Clean up spilled fluid immediately to
avoid erosion of painted surfaces or plas-
tic parts.

Install the brake caliper 0 and tighten the
pad pins A.
