BLEEDING THE BRAKES 
Primed System 
Bleed  the front  brakes  first starting  with the wheel 
nearest  to the master  cylinder. 
1. Attach a rubber  tube  to the  bleed  screw  and 
immerse  the  other end 
in a glass jar containing a 
quantity  of clean,  new recommended  brake fluid. 
2.  Check that the  fluid reservoir  is full 
to the maximum 
mark. 
3. Unscrew the bleed  screw approximately  half-a-turn, 
enough  to allow  fluid 
to be  pumped  out. Do not 
open the screw  too far or air  will  be drawn  back into 
the  system  around  the threads. 
4. Smartly  depress  the  foot pedal,  pause and then 
allow  the pedal  to rapidly  return, pause again before 
repeating  the procedure. 
5. Continue  with the above  sequence  until all air 
bubbles  cease whilst  ensuring  that the reservoir  is 
kept  topped
-up. 
6.  Close  the bleed  screw  immediately  after  the last 
down  stroke,  whilst 
the pedal is depressed. 
Unprimed System 
To bleed  a  replacement  master  cylinder or a fully 
drained  system. 
7.  Top  up the 
fluid reservoir  to the  maximum  mark. 
8. Open a bleed  screw in both  circuits  and allow  fluid 
to  prime  both  circuits 
of the mastcr cylinder by 
gravity  for  approximately  five minutes,  then  bleed 
as  for a primed system.

for  the  primary  plunger outer seal by  squeezing  the 
seal  between  the finger  and  thumb into  an  ellipse 
and  press  the raised  part 
of the seal  over  the flange 
using  the fingers 
of the  other  hand. 
17. Fit  the  recuperating  seal  assembly parts in the

Assembling  master cylinder 
It is important  that  the following  instructions  are 
carried  out precisely,  otherwise  damage  could be 
caused  to the new seals  when  inserting  the plungers into 
the  cylinder  bore.  Generous amounts of  new brake 
fluid  should  be  used 
to lubricate  the  parts during 
assembly.  Never use old fluid  or any  other  form 
of 
cleaning  and lubricating  material.  Cleanliness 
throughout  is essential. 
18. Clamp  the cylinder  in a vice and lubricate  the 
secondary  plunger  seals  and cylinder  bore. Offer 
the  plunger  assembly  to the  cylinder  until the 
recuperation  seal 
is resting  centrally  in the  mouth 
of the  bore.  Gently  introduce  the plunger  with a 
circular  rocking motion,  as  illustrated. Whilst 
ensuring  that the  seal  does not become  trapped, 
ease  the  seal into  the  bore  and slowly  push the 
plunger down  in one  continuous movement.

Lubricate  new seals  and 
fit to the inlet  ports  (large 
diameter  downwards). 
Press  the reservoir  into position  and secure  with
