Tools and equipment required:
- 2mm Allen wrench
- Piece of tubing
- 4mm Allen wrench
- Tektro brake fluid
- 7mm wrench
- Piston holder
- T15 Torx® wrench
- A clean, empty bottle or plastic bag
- 20cc syringe
- A cleaning towel
CAUTION:
Cleanliness is a very important part of any maintenance of the Tektro
hydraulic disc brake. If the pads or rotor become contaminated with oil or if the
hydraulics become contaminated with impurities, braking performance will be
greatly impaired. Use only Tektro brake fluid with the Tektro hydraulic disc brake.
Other brake fluids may not be compatible and may damage the system.
Step By Step Guide (See 4a - 4e)
Step 1:
Place the bike in a stand. Position lever so that it sits parallel to the ground. (See
4a)
Step 2:
Remove disc brake pads to avoid contamination during the bleed procedure.
-Insert a disc brake piston setting tool or other non-sharp tool and push the
pistons back into the caliper.
Step 3:
Insert Tektro bleed block into caliper. Bleed block ensures that pistons will not
move inward during bleed procedure.
Step 4:
Using a T15 Torx, unscrew the bolt located at the caliper bleed port. (See 4b)
Step 5:
Attach a section of plastic tubing with knurled silver bleed fitting to your syringe
(supplied with bleed kit). Fill Syringe halfway with Tektro Mineral Oil. Hold the
Syringe vertically with the tip up and tap out any air bubbles. Install the knurled
silver bleed fitting (supplied with the bleed kit) into the caliper bleed port.
Step 6:
Using a T15 Torx, remove the Reser/oir bleed plug. Set aside.
Step 7:
Install the knurled silver bleed fitting (supplied with the bleed kit) into the
reservoir bleed port. Firmly attach a long plastic tube over the bleed fitting,
placing the other end into a clean, dry empty bottle or plastic bag .(See 4c)

Collection bottle
Step 8:
Start filling the brake with new mineral oil by slowly pushing the syringe. Air
bubbles may come out of the reservoir. Continue pushing fluid until you no
longer see bubbles coming out of the tube .(See 4d)
Step 9:
Remove the plastic bag or collection bottle, section of tube, and knuried bleed
fitting from the brake lever reservoir. Re-install the T-15 reservoir bleed plug.
Tighten to 2-4Nm.
Step 10:
With the bleed plug installled at the reservoir, you may now remove the syringe
and knurled bleed fitting from the caliper. Re-install the T-15 caliper bleed plug.
Tighten to 2-4Nm.
Step 11:
Wipe off any excess oil from the lever and caliper body.
Step 12:
Remove 2-Piston Bleed Block and reintstall the brake pads.
