3.
If the pump has not stopped after 60 seconds, turn ignition OFF and remove reservoir cap. Install pressure bleeder adapter, J-35798, as shown in
Figure 1.
4.
Connect a standard diaphragm-type pressure bleeder to bleeder adapter as shown in Figure 1. Only DOT 3 brake fluid should be used in the
pressure bleeder. Charge pressure bleeder to 20-30 psi.
5.
Turn pressure bleeder on, allowing pressurized brake fluid from the bleeder to fill and pressurize reservoir. At the same time, turn ignition switch
to RUN position.
6.
The pump will start when ignition is turned to RUN and should stop within 60 seconds. When pump stops, turn ignition to OFF and remove
pressure bleeder and adapter.
7.
Using a clean syringe or equivalent method, remove excess fluid from the reservoir to bring fluid level to the full mark. Depressurize accumulator
by pumping the brake pedal a minimum of 25 times. Adjust fluid to the full mark on the reservoir level using only DOT 3 fluid.
CAUTION: Do not remove brake fluid from the reservoir using a syringe or other instrument which is contaminated with water petroleum-based fluids,
or any other foreign material. Contamination of the brake fluid may result in impaired system operation, property damage, or personal
injury.
8.
Install reservoir cap and verify system operation. With the accumulator fully depressurized, the pump should turn on for approximately 30 seconds
while the accumulator is pressurized and then turn off.
