The master cylinder bleed screw should only be opened by a small angle, just enough
to allow system pressure to drop. When pulling the brake lever or pushing the caliper
pistons in, some resistance should be felt indicating that the screw is not opened too
much.
4. Open the master cylinder bleed screw slightly to let fluid flow but still feel resistance
to pushing the caliper pistons in.
1. Bleed screw
2. Fluid reservoir
5. With pressure still applied in the caliper, close the master cylinder bleed screw.
6. Tighten the master cylinder bleed screw to 6 Nm.
Perform the following operations:
• Front Brake Caliper - Installation
• Bleed the front brakes (see Bleeding the Front Brakes).
