OPERATION
1. Consult your vehicle’s instruction manual to know which kind of brake uid is best. Ensure
that the engine is turned o. Lift your vehicle and keep it safely elevated on a stand. You can
remove the wheels in turn or all together.
2. Open your hood and locate your brake uid reservoir. Remove as much brake uid as possible
from the vehicle’s reservoir. Be careful as brake uid will erode paint.
3. Place the brake uid reservoir adapter (H) where the brake uid reservoir cap was. Connect
the brake uid reservoir adapter to the adapter hose (G).
4. Fill the pressure bleeder reservoir (D) with brake uid, screw the reservoir cap (C), with the
provided cap wrench (E), on and use the hand pump handle (B) to increase the pressure of the
system to 10 psi.
5. Start bleeding the uid out of the system by attaching the bleeding hose (F) to the brake caliper,
unfastening the caliper bleeder, and collecting the brake uid in the brake bleeder bottle (A).
6. Assist the bleeding process by pressing on your vehicle’s brakes periodically.
7. Stop draining uid once the uid going through the bleeding hose becomes clear. Refasten the
bleeder and disconnect the bleeding hose.
8. Repeat this process for the brake calipers on all other wheels. Between each caliper bleed, ll
up the brake uid reservoir. Clean any grime o the caliper before connection.
9. Depressurize the reservoir before removing the brake uid reservoir adapter and reinstalling
the brake uid reservoir cap on your vehicle.
10. Reinstall the wheels after bleeding each caliper or once all the calipers have been bled. Verify
the integrity of the braking system by depressing the brake pedal and if it does not feel rm,
correct any problems before using the vehicle. Next, take a slow drive while periodically testing
the brakes. Again, correct any problems before continuing to use the vehicle.
