Bleeding the Brakes
NOTE:
Brake bleed screws are on either side of the differential housing.
1.
Loosen the brake bleed port lock nuts (A) a minimum of one complete turn.
2.
Open the bleed screws (B) one and one half turns.
3.
Uncouple the brake pedals. Start engine and pump the left and right brake pedals together three times with one of the pedals at least 13 mm (0.5 in.) lower than the other.
4.
Lock the brake pedals together and depress the brake pedals for a minimum of 2 minutes.
5.
Close the bleed screws and tighten lock nuts with pedals still depressed.
6.
Check that the brakes function correctly. Bleed brakes again if necessary.
IMPORTANT:
Any noticeable pedal drift downward from the point of resistance indicates brake leakage.
