One assistant (task b. only) General Safety Instructions
Brake fluid (Appendix C, Item 14) Hood raised and secured (TM 9-2320-280-10).
Master cylinder filled to proper level (para. 2-11, pg 2-12, Item 11).
Always wear eye protection when bleeding brakes.
Always wear eye protection when bleeding brakes. Failure to do this may cause injury if brake fluid comes in contact with eyes.
Note If only the front or rear half of the system has been serviced, it is usually necessary to bleed only that half of the system. However, if a firm brake pedal cannot be obtained after bleeding, it will be necessary to bleed the entire system. The brake hydraulic system can be bled manually or by using a pressure tank and adapters. Each method is outlined in the following procedures.
Bleed brakes in the following order: right rear, left rear, right front, left front.
a. Pressure Bleeding
When using a pressure bleeding tank, follow the manufacturer's instructions for its use. Do not exceed the recommended working pressure when pressurizing the tank. A tank pressure of 15-20 psi (103, 138 kPa) is sufficient to bleed the brake hydraulic system. Release all air pressure from the tank after using it.
After refilling pressure bleeding tank with silicone brake fluid, let tank sit undisturbed for 30 minutes minimum to ensure all visible as well as minute air bubbles are gone.
Note This procedure covers bleeding at one wheel. Repeat bleeding task for remaining wheels.
Remove cover from master cylinder (1).
Install pressure tank bleeder adapter (2) to master cylinder (1).
Connect line (3) from pressure tank to adapter (2). Remove protective cap (5) from bleeder screw (6) on caliper assembly (7).
Connect short piece of hose (8) to bleeder screw (6), and place other end of hose (8) in container 3/4 full of brake fluid.
Open valve (4) on line from pressure tank to master cylinder (1), allowing pressurized brake fluid to enter system.
Open bleeder screw (6) 3/4 turn and observe brake fluid in container. Close bleeder screw (6) when brake fluid flows free of air bubbles.
Disconnect hose (8) from bleeder screw (6) and install protective cap (5) on bleeder screw (6). Close valve (4) on line (3) from pressure tank to master cylinder (1). Disconnect line (3) from adapter (2). Remove adapter (2) from master cylinder (1) and install master cylinder cover.
This procedure covers bleeding at one wheel. Repeat bleeding task for remaining wheels.
Assistant is required to depress the brake pedal when manually bleeding brakes while mechanic opens and closes bleeder screw.
-
Remove protective cap (5) from bleeder screw (6) on caliper assembly (7).
-
Connect short piece of hose (8) to bleeder screw (6), and place other end of hose (8) in container 3/4 full brake fluid.
Check the master cylinder fluid level frequently during the bleeding operation and refill the reservoirs as necessary. Do not allow the master cylinder to run out of fluid at any time, or additional air will be drawn into the system. After adding silicone brake fluid to master cylinder, let cylinder sit undisturbed for 30 minutes minimum to ensure all visible as well as minute air bubbles are gone.
-
Have assistant pump brake pedal toward floor and hold it there. Open bleeder screw (6) 3/4 turn.
