Bleed the brake system, using an 11mm box wrench, to loosen the bleed screws. The sequence for
bleeding the brakes should be:
1. Right outboard bleed screw
2. Right inboard bleed screw
3. Left outboard bleed screw
4. Left inboard bleed screw
Though a torque wrench is not typically used on bleed screws, as a reference, the torque for bleed
screws should be approximately 100-140 lb-INCH
approximately 100-140 lb-INCH approximately 100-140 lb-INCH approximately 100-140 lb-INCH approximately 100-140 lb-INCH.
After initially bleeding the system, gently tap the caliper body with a mallet to dislodge any small
air bubbles, then re-bleed the brakes.
After bleeding, apply constant pressure to the brake pedal, and check all connections - including
bleed screws, and both ends of the brake line - for leaks.
