HYDRAULIC SYSTEM BLEEDING

With Hydraulic Clutch

1. Fill the reservoir with clean brake fluid meeting DOT 3 specifications.

   WARNING
   Clean, high quality brake fluid is essential to the safe and proper operation of the brake system. You should always buy the highest quality brake fluid that is available. If the brake fluid becomes contaminated, drain and flush the system, then refill the master cylinder with new fluid. Never reuse any brake fluid. Any brake fluid that is removed from the system should be discarded. Also, do not allow any brake fluid to come in contact with a painted surface; it will damage the paint.

2. Press the clutch pedal to the floor, then open the bleeder screw on the slave cylinder.
3. Tighten the bleed screw and release the clutch pedal.
4. Repeat the procedure until the fluid is free of air bubbles.
