BLEEDING THE REAR BRAKE SYSTEM
Check the quantity of brake liquid in the compensation tank; fill up new liquid to the
maximum level.
Slide a hose onto the corresponding brake cylinder screw and immerse its other end
to the bottom of a transparent container partly filled with the brake liquid.
Depress the brake pedal, release the bleeding screw by 1/4 turn at the most, further
depress the brake pedal and tighten the bleeding screw.
Release the brake pedal and repeat the procedure until air bubbles stop escaping
from the hose.
During the bleeding observe the liquid
level in the compensation tank to avoid
aspiration of air (A).
Make sure that the hose end is
continuously immersed in the liq-
uid and hold the container as
high as possible (B). After two
years you must replace the brake
liquid in the whole brake circuit.
