Always use fluid from a sealed container and dispose of used fluid safely.
• Make sure the bleed tube is firmly attached to the bleed nipple.
• Submerge the end of the bleed tube in a bleed jar containing a small quantity of approved brake fluid.
• Position the bleed jar base at least 300 mm (12 in) above the bleed nipple to maintain fluid pressure and prevent air leaking past the bleed nipple threads.
• Open the bleed nipple half a turn.
• Slowly apply the brake pedal to its maximum travel (this forces brake fluid into the bleed jar).
• Close the bleed nipple.
• Return the brake pedal to the rest position.
• Wait 2 seconds to allow the brake fluid to replenish the system.
• Fill up the brake master cylinder reservoir to the MAX mark as necessary.
• Continue to bleed the circuit until air-free brake fluid is pumped into the jar.
• Fully tighten the bleed nipple.
