    Typical Location of the Air Purge Screw for Rear Service Brakes
    (1) Air purge screw.
    Note: Each axle has two air purge screws.

    The location for the two air purge screws for the front service brakes is similar.

    The air purge screws for the service brakes are located on the top of the corresponding axle
    housing.

    Note: Perform this procedure for one service brake at a time.

    1. Check the hydraulic tank oil level. Make sure that you maintain the correct oil level in the
    hydraulic oil tank throughout the air removal procedure.

    2. Start the engine. Allow the oil pressure to increase to the cut-out pressure.

    3. Fasten one end of a transparent tube that is 6.4 mm (.25 inch) in diameter to an air purge
    screw. Put the other end of the tube into a suitable container for collecting the hydraulic oil.
    You may also route the tube back to the hydraulic oil tank. Loosen the air purge screw (1).

    4. The operator should slowly depress the brake pedal. Hold the brake pedal in this position
    throughout Step 5.

    5. As the hydraulic oil flows through the tube, look for air bubbles in the oil. Allow the oil to flow
    into the container until no air bubbles are visible. Then, tighten the air purge screw (1).
    Release the brake pedal.

    6. Perform this procedure for each of the other service brakes. Make sure that you tighten
    each air purge screw (1).

    7. Fill the hydraulic tank, if necessary.

    Note: If the brake pedal is spongy during the first hours of operation, perform this procedure
    again.
