STEP BY STEP GUIDE
1
With the brake correctly installed, place the bike in a stand or similar device to hold it secur
ely parallel to the ground.
2
Firmly attach a ling plastic tube (supplied in the service kit) over the outlet valve. Placing the
other end into the syringe with oil by suitable volume.
3
Using a 4” Allen wrench, slightly loosen the brake lever’s bracket retaining bolt. Turn the
brake lever so that the reservoir tank is parallel to the ground. [see photo f-2]

Place the outlet valve on the hole and rmly attach a long plastic tube over the outlet valve,
placing the other end into a clean, dry empty bottle, or plastic bag [see photo f-4]

Open the outlet valve on the caliper slightly (1/8 turn to ¼ turn) Brake uid should now
appear in the plastic tube connected to it. You may also notice air bubbles in the tube. [see

Start lling the reservoir with new mineral oil by pushing the syringe. Air bubbles may come
out the tube from the outlet valve on the reservoir tank of the brake lever’s bracket. Be sure
to ll the oil by pushing the syringe until the oil is out of the outlet valve on the reservoir
tank of the brake lever’s bracket, so that no air gets into the system. [see photo f-6]

When no more air bubbles appear to be coming out of the outlet valve, remove the outlet
valve from the bracket. Using a T15 Torx wrench tighten the bolt on that side reservoir tank.
Final tightening torque 2-4 Nm.
