Pressure Bleeding

NOTE: Before bleeding system, exhaust all vacuum from power unit by depressing brake pedal several times. Bleed wheel cylinders or calipers in sequence.
  1. Clean master cylinder cap and surrounding area, then remove cap. With pressure tank at least 1/3 full, connect to master cylinder using proper adapter. Attach bleeder hose to first bleeder valve to be serviced. Bleeding sequence is RR, LF, LR, RF. Place other end of hose in clean glass jar partially filled with clean brake fluid so end of hose is submerged in fluid.
  2. Open release valve on pressure bleeder. Unscrew valve 3/4-1 turn noting fluid flow. When fluid flowing from cylinder to cup is free of bubbles, close bleeder valve securely. Bleed remaining cylinders in correct sequence and in same manner.
