Removal of air from the hydraulic actuator

            0

Place the vehicle on a level surface or on a lift. Remove the master cylinder reservoir cap and add brake fluid to the mark «MAX».

Remove the cap from the brake bleeder of the right front wheel and put a rubber hose on its head, lower the other end of the hose into a vessel partially filled with liquid, and install the vessel at least 300 mm higher than the bleeder. Loosen the bleeder screw half a turn and press the brake pedal vigorously and fully until no air bubbles come out of the hose. With the pedal pressed all the way down, screw in the bleed screw and put the cap on it.

In the same way, pump the brake mechanisms of the left rear, left front and right rear wheels. During operation, top up the brake fluid in the tank, avoiding the exposure of its bottom.
