9 Wear eye protection and keep skin contact to a minimum. If brake uid enters eyes rinse with plenty of water and seek medical
advice. if swallowed seek medical advice immediately.
WarninG! Only use new Brake Fluid, used Brake Fluid or other uids will contaminate the system and possible brake system
failure may result.
WarninG! dO nOt pollute the environment by allowing uncontrolled discharge of uids.
WarninG! Brake uid is ammable - keep away from sources of ignition, including hot surfaces e.g. exhaust manifold.
WarninG! Brake uid will damage paintwork. Any spillage should be ushed with water immediately.
WarninG! dO nOt allow the uid capacity in the unit to fall below ½ litre during the bleeding process otherwise air may enter
the system.
2. intrOductiOn
One-man pressure brake and clutch bleeding system suitable for the professional workshop. Low pressure tank (20-40psi) can be
pre-charged with compressed air - making the unit fully portable. Large reservoir means reduced risk of running the system dry during bleeding
process or complete fluid change. suitable for use on ABs systems. features a long delivery hose for operation with a low level ramp and long
reach handle for easy mobility. supplied with a range of european, Japanese and us vehicle adaptors.

5. air supply
5.1. Recommended hook up is shown in g.2.
5.2. You will require an air pressure of 40psi and air ow according to
specication.
5.3. Ensure that the air supply is clean and does not exceed 40psi. Too
high a pressure and/or unclean air may damage the diaphragm
and will shorten the product life due to excessive wear and may
cause damage and/or personal injury.
5.4. drain the air tank daily. Water in the air line will damage the unit
and invalidate your warranty.
5.5. The minimum hose diameter should be ¼” I.D and ttings must
have the same internal dimensions.
5.6. Keep hose away from heat, oil and sharp edges. check hoses for
wear and make certain that all connections are secure.

6. OperatiOn
6.1. brake bleeding procedure.
6.1.1.
6.1.2.
Refer to the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions for brake bleeding and wheel sequence before proceeding. If no specific instructions
from the vehicle manufacturer exist, follow the instructions detailed below.
WARNING! Familiarise yourself with the hazards of brake uid - read manufacturer’s instructions on the container.
DO NOT touch the vehicle’s brake pedal whilst bleeding the brakes.
Check that the pressure release valve (fig.3.1) is open and that there is no pressure within the unit. Unscrew the filler cap (fig.1.1) on the
unit and top up to full capacity with new brake fluid. replace filler cap and close the pressure release valve.
WarninG! Do not allow the uid capacity within the unit to fall below ½ litre during the bleeding process otherwise air may
enter the system
.
nOte: the diaphragm may be visible from the neck of the filler and will require deflating before filling, this can be done by pushing
down on the diaphragm with a clean blunt instrument.
6.1.3.
6.1.4.
6.1.5. Slowly open the air intake valve (fig.3.3) and turn the air regulator clockwise until a pressure of 20psi is registered on the pressure
nOte: the brake bleeder can be used remotely by closing the air supply valve once the unit has been charged with air and then
6.1.6.
6.1.7. Remove the cap on the vehicle’s brake fluid reservoir. If the brake fluid level is not at maximum, top it up and select a suitable adaptor
6.1.8. Connect the fluid supply pipe quick connector to the adaptor and slowly open the valve (fig.1.3) to pressurise the system.
6.1.9. starting with the brake furthest away from the master cylinder connect the tube from the bleeding bottle to the nipple and using a brake

6.1.15. carry out the brake bleeding procedure as described above.
6.1.16. When new uid can be seen in the clear tube tighten the brake nipple.
6.1.17. repeat this procedure at each wheel in turn.
6.1.18. disconnect as above (6.1.10 & 6.1.11).
NOTE: When brake bleeding and/or uid changing is complete, test the action of the brake pedal to ensure that the brakes are working
6.2. clutch bleeding procedure.
6.2.1. Refer to the relevant vehicle manufacturer’s instructions for clutch bleeding procedure. If no specic instructions from the
Check that the air regulator (fig.3.2) is turned fully anticlockwise, the air intake valve (fig.3.3) and the fluid supply pipe valve (fig.1.3) are in
the closed positions.

disconnect the air supply.
8 dO nOt exceed the maximum pressure of 40psi, if the unit exceeds this pressure the safety valve (fig.3.5) will be activated.
Connect one of the adaptors to the end of the fluid supply pipe and hold over a waste oil container, slowly open the valve (fig.1.3) to
release air from the supply pipe. When brake fluid is free flowing, close the valve.
