  2. Remove regulator attaching nuts. Remove regulator from mounting studs. Depress brake pedal until front gauge reads indicated pressure for first reading in BRAKE PRESSURE chart.
  3. Maintain pressure, and tilt front of regulator down at a 30° angle. Increase pedal pressure until front gauge reads indicated pressure for second reading. Record rear gauge reading.
    NOTE: DO NOT damage brake lines when tilting regulator.
  4. If pressures are as specified in BRAKE PRESSURE CHART, return and secure regulator to proper position. Remove gauges, and bleed hydraulic system. If pressures are not as specified, replace regulator.
