The master cylinder used has no check valve, so if bleeding is carried out by the
following procedure, bleeding of air from the brake pipeline will become easier.
(When brake fluid is not contained in the master cylinder).
1. Fill the reserve tank with brake fluid.
2. Keep the brake pedal depressed.
3. Have another person cover the master cylinder outlet with a finger.

4. With the outlet still closed, release the brake pedal.
5. Repeat steps 2 - 4 three or four times to fill the inside of the master cylinder
with brake fluid. BRAKE LINE BLEEDING Start the en
gine and bleed the air in the se
quence shown in the fi
gure.

The brake fluid level sensor is in good condition if there is no continuity when the
float surface is above "MIN" and if there is continuity when the float surface is
below "MIN".

DISC BRAKE PAD CHECK AND REPLACEMENT NOTE: The brake pads (LH wheel) have indicators that contact the
brake disc when the brake pad thickness becomes 2 mm
(0.08 inch), and emit a squealing sound to warn the driver.

5. If the run-out cannot be corrected by changing the phase of the brake disc,
replace the brake disc or grind it with the on-the-car type brake lathe ("MAD,
DL-8700PF" or equivalent). MASTER CYLINDER FUNCTION CHECK 1. Remove the reservoir cap.
2. While watching the open reservoir from a distance of 50 cm (20 inches), have
an assistant depress the brake pedal. If there was a stream of brake fluid rising
from the reservoir, proceed to Step 3. If there was no stream of brake fluid
rising from the reservoir, repair or replace the master cylinder.
3. While watching the open reservoir from a distance of 50 cm (20 inches), have
the assistant release the brake pedal. If there was a small amount of air bubbles
rising through the brake fluid, master cylinder function is normal. If there were
no bubbles rising through the brake fluid, repair or replace the master cylinder. BRAKE PEDAL REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
