INTRODUCTION & SPECIFICATION
The pneumatic brake bleeder enables simple, one man operation using a standard workshop air supply (90 a 120 psi). Quick clean and efficient
operation without requiring specialised brake reservoir caps. Draws fluid from the brake nipple enabling brake blending or full replacement of
fluid in the system.
Inlet air pressure: 6-12 bar (87-174psi)
Air consumption: 180ltr/min
Thread connection: 1/4" BSP (female)
Container capacity: 0.75 l
Vaccum: 60%
OPERATION
3.1 BRAKE BLEEDING PROCEDURE
Familiarise yourself with the hazards of brake fluid. Read manufacturers instructions on the container.
Do not touch the vehicle's brake pedal whilst bleeding the brakes.
3.1.1 Remove the cap of the vehicle's brake fluid reservoir. If the fluid level is not at maximum top it up.
3.1.2 Remove the cap assemply (See Fig.1 - A) from the replenishment bottle and invert it within the neck of the reservoir as shown in Fig 1. The
threaded outlet "B" must be immersed in the brake fluid. If it is not, rotate the 3 legged moulding "C" clockwise towards the valve "D" until sufficient
thread is exposed to allow the outlet to be immersed in the brake fluid.
3.1.3 Ensure the valve is closed as shown in Fig 1-"D".
3.1.4 Fill the replenishment bottle just under half full with new brake fluid and screw the cap assembly back down onto the bottle. Invert the bottle
over your container of new brake fluid and open the valve so that the fluid level begins to drop towards the level marked on the bottle. As soon
as the level mark is reached close the valve.
3.1.5 Place the bottle into the neck of the vehicle brake fluid reservoir as shown in Fig 1 and open the valve. As the brakes are bled the fluid level
in the reservoir will begin to drop and expose the bottle outlet. Brake fluid will begin to flow from the replenishment bottle. Once the level in the
reservoir has risen sufficiently to cover the outlet the flow will automatically stop.
3.1.6 Connect the brake bleeder to a suitable compressed air unit.
3.1.7 Mount the black rubber pipe onto the brake nipple on the first wheel and open the nipple about 1/4 of a turn (See fig 2).
3.1.8 Activate the braje bleeder's trigger. The vacuum created will draw the brake fluid from the vehicle's brake system.
3.1.9 Continue to bleed the system until there are no air bubbles visible in the clear tube (See fig 3).
3.1.10 Close the brake nipple (See fig 2).
3.1.11 Remove the rubber pipe from the brake nipple.
3.1.12 Depress the trigger to clear brake fluid from the clear pipe.
3.2.13 Repeat the process at each wheel in turn..
3.2 CHANGING THE BRAKE FLUID
3.2.1 Repeat the brake bleeding procedure as described above. As
the fluid is being completely changed regularly check the level in
the replenishment bottle.
3.2.2 When new fluid can be seen in the clear tube tighten the
brake nipple.
3.2.3 Repeat this procedure at every wheel. When brake bleeding
and/or fluid changing is complete, test action of brake pedal to en-
sure that the brakes are working before driving the vehicle.
3.2.4 Apply copper grease to the brake bleeding nipples before and
after the brake bleeding procedure to eliminate the possibility of
seized or broken nipples when the brakes are next bled (See fig 4).
