1. NOTE: It is not necessary to do a complete brake system bleed if only the disc brake caliper (2B120) was disconnected.
Place a box end wrench on the disc brake caliper bleeder screw (2208). Attach a rubber drain tube to the disc brake caliper bleeder screw, and submerge the free end of the tube in a container partially filled with clean brake fluid.
