2. Start the engine. Allow the oil pressure to increase to the cut-out pressure. Then, stop the engine. 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. Loosen the air purge screw. 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. Release the brake pedal. 6. Perform this procedure for each of the other service brakes. Make sure that you tighten each air purge screw. 7. Fill the hydraulic oil tank, if necessary. Note: If the brake pedal is spongy during the first hours of operation, perform this procedure again. Copyright 1993 - 2019 Caterpillar Inc. All Rights Reserved.
