L L EBT.(Easy.Bleed.Technology).makes.it.easy.to.bleed.the.brake.
L L The.only.difference.between.bleeding.and.filling.–.if.any.–.is.the.amount.
of.oil.required.–.the.procedure.is.identical.
L L Always.fill.at.the.brake.calliper,.never.at.the.brake.lever!
Loss of oil and irreparable damage to the braking system.
Î – Open.the.screw.plugs.for.bleeding.and.filling.only.
Î – Use.MAGURA.Royal Blood.(mineral.oil).exclusively.for.bleeding.and.
filling.–.never.DOT.brake.fluid.
L L Because.MAGURA.Royal Blood.does.not.age,.it.is.not.necessary.to.
bleed.or.refill.your.MAGURA.brake.regularly..Do.this.only.if.one.of.the.
following.reasons.requires.it:
О О The.brake.does.not.respond.immediately.when.the.brake.lever.is.actu-
ated.
О О
Pressure.point.is.not.clearly.defined,.it.is.spongy.or.does.not.remain.

L L To.bleed.or.fill.your.MAGURA.brake.you.will.need.the.MAGURA.Service
Kit.or.the.MAGURA.Pro Bleed Kit.–.available.from.dealers.
. ) Insert.barbed.fitting. ( 1 ) .tightly.into.the.filling.line.by.hand. [ H1 ] .
. ) Fill.filling.syringe. ( 2 ) .with.MAGURA.Royal Blood.
. ) Make.sure.that.there.is.no.air.in.the.filling.syringe.and.filling.line.

Use.two.transport.devices.per.brake.calliper.with.4-piston.brake.cal-
lipers.and.fasten.them.with.a.rubber.ring.or.similar.if.necessary!
. ) Align.brake.caliper.vertically.
L L If.your.assembly.stand.makes.it.impossible.to.align.the.brake.calliper.
vertically,.you.will.have.to.unscrew.it.to.bleed.it..We.always.recommend.
this.procedure,.because.it.is.better.to.hold.the.brake.calliper.above.the.
level.of.the.brake.lever.on.completion.of.the.bleeding.process.and.
before.removing.the.filling.syringe.to.prevent.oil.loss.
. ) Unscrew.the.screw.plug. ( 6 ) .from.the.filler.hole.of.the.brake.calliper.
. ) Screw.the.barbed.fitting.of.the.filling.syringe. ( 2 ) .into.the.filler.hole.and.
tighten.to.a.torque.of. max. 4 N·m (35 lbf·in). [ H2 ] .
