BLEEDING THE BRAKING CIRCUIT
DANGER
•
The oil spilled on the floor may cause it to become slip-
pery; immediately clean any dirty area.
•
Oils, filters, the coolant and the battery are considered
special waste and must be collected and disposed of ac-
cording to the anti-pollution regulations in force.
This operation is important, since it helps maintain the power
and braking efficiency of the machine.
Proceed as follows:
1 - Make sure that the oil in the braking system tank (3) reaches
the maximum level.
2 - Press the brake pedal thoroughly and, keeping it pressed,
loosen the drain screw (1) of the relevant brake until the ped-
al reaches the end of stroke.
Use a 13 mm spanner.
3 - Keeping the pedal at the end of its stroke, tighten the drain
screw (1).
4 - Release the brake pedal, wait for a few minutes and repeat
the operations described above until no air bubbles can be
noticed in the oil that flows out of the drain screw (1).
IMPORTANT
☞
•
When bleeding the system, apply a small pipe to the
screws (1), in order to collect the oil.
•
The bleeding must be carried out for both braking units,
disconnecting the pedals from each other.
•
Check the oil level in the braking system tank frequently
and top up whenever the oil is near the minimum level.
•
For the topping up, use only new oil of the prescribed
type.
