6.
Operate the vacuum bleeder by turning the bleeder
valve (I) and press the push button (B) to create the
vacuum (allow a few seconds for the vacuum to
build up in the bleed container before it is sucked
in) and loosen/open the bleed screw slightly with
the ring spanner until the liquid visibly drains
through the bleed hose into the container (D).
NOTE: During the bleeding process, when the liquid is sucked in through the bleed screw, air
is also sucked out of the bleed screw thread into the vent hose sucked in. This may give the
false impression that air is escaping from the pipes, but it is normal and is not a problem. To
prevent or reduce this type of air, coat the bleed screw threads with silicone grease before
bleeding.
7.
Keep the bleed screw open until new fluid visibly
flows through the brake hose (F) (usually 20 to 30
seconds).
8.
Tighten the bleed screw firmly without over-
tightening it before removing the rubber fitting or
switching off the unit.
NOTE: It is important to ensure that the rubber fitting remains connected to the bleed screw
and that the unit continues to draw a vacuum while the bleed screw is closed. This prevents air
from being sucked back into the wheel cylinder from the bleed screw thread before the bleed
screw is tightened and sealed.
If an automatic refill kit is not used, regularly check the level and the brake fluid level in the
master cylinder.
