BRAKE SYSTEM P MIRROR AIR BLEEDING The brakes should be bleed whenever a brake line is dis- connected. If a hydraulic line is disconnected at the mas- ter cylinder, start at the slave cylinder farthest from the brake master cylinder, and move to the next closest slave cylinder until all four cylinders have been bled. If the disconnection point is anywhere except the master cylinder, start at the point closest to the disconnection, and move to the next farthest slave cylinder until all four cylinders have been bled. 1. On level ground jack up the vehicle and support it evenly on safety stands. 2. Remove the bleeder cap and attach a vinyl tube to the bleeder screw. 3. Place the other end of the vinyl tube in a clear container. 4. One person should depress the brake pedal a few times, and then hold it in the depressed position. 5. A second person should loosen the bleeder screw, drain out the fluid, and close the screw by using the SST. 6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until only clean fluid is seen. The reservoir should be kept about 3/4 full during bleeding to prevent air from reentering the lines. 7. Modify the brake pipe tightening torque to allow for a torque wrench-SST combination. (Refer to section GI) "Torque Formulas". 8. Tighten the brake pipe by using SST. 9. Check for correct brake operation. 10. Verify that there is no fluid leakage. Clean away any spilled fluid with rags. 11. After bleeding the air, add brake fluid to the reservoir up to the specified level. BRAKE HYDRAULIC LINE On-vehicle Inspection Check the following and replace parts as necessary. 1. Cracks, damage, and corrosion of the brake hose 2. Damage to the brake hose threads 3. Scars, cracks, and swelling of the flexible hose 4. All lines for fluid leakage Gartner Banana
