pressure BraKe Bleeding

The Mityvac Fluid Dispensing System is appropri-
ate for use as a pressure bleeder for hydraulic
brake and clutch systems. Additional accessories
and adapters may be required and are available
from Mityvac for performing this function.
Warning: Hydraulic/brake fluid is hazardous and
corrosive. Take precautions to protect painted
surfaces and skin from exposure, and read and
follow the fluid manufacturer's warnings and
instructions.
1. Park the car, set the parking brake, and turn off
the engine.
2. Open and secure the hood.
3. Locate the brake or clutch master cylinder and
remove the cap.
4. Extract as much used hydraulic fluid from the
master cylinder reservoir as possible, and refill
it with new fluid.
5. Select the appropriate master cylinder pres-
sure bleed adapter and install it securely onto
the master cylinder reservoir.
6. Before adding fluid to the Dispenser, connect
the fluid dispensing hose to the female quick-
connect coupler extending from the reservoir.
Ensure the coupler sleeve snaps forward to
lock the connection.
7. Connect the other end of the fluid dispensing
hose to the male quick-connect coupler on
the master cylinder pressure bleed adapter.
Ensure the coupler sleeve snaps forward to
lock the connection.
8. Ensure the shutoff valve is open, and operate
the manual pump to pressurize the system to
10 psi (0.7 bar).
9. Watch the pressure gauge to ensure there are
no leaks. If the pressure drops, relieve the
remaining pressure in the system by tilting the
pressure relief knob located on the lid, remove
and retighten the lid from the dispensing res-
ervoir and the adapter on the master cylinder
reservoir, and recheck the system for leaks.
Warning: Serious injury and/or equipment
damage can occur if the lid is removed from
the dispensing unit or the adapter from the
master cylinder, without first relieving the
system pressure.
