Troubleshooting
The unit is not building pressure.
Check the air supply connection and ensure it is properly connected. Verify that the air pressure is within the recommended range (20-40 psi).
Fluid is not flowing.
Ensure the bleed valve on the caliper is open. Check for any blockages in the hose or adaptor. Make sure the reservoir has sufficient fluid.
Air bubbles are still present after bleeding.
Ensure all connections are airtight. Check for leaks around the bleed valve and adaptor. Repeat the bleeding process, allowing more time for the fluid to flow.
