1.1. ELECTRICAL SAFETY.
WARNING! It is the responsibility of the owner and the operator to read, understand and comply with the following:
You must check all electrical products, before use, to ensure that they are safe. You must inspect power cables, plugs, sockets and any other
connectors for wear or damage. You must ensure that the risk of electric shock is minimised by the installation of appropriate safety devices. A
Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) should be incorporated in the main distribution board. We also recommend that a Residual Current
Device (RCD) is used. It is particularly important to use an RCD with portable products that are plugged into a supply which is not protected
by an RCCB. If in any doubt consult a qualified electrician. You may obtain a Residual Current Device by contacting your Sealey dealer.
You must also read and understand the following instructions concerning electrical safety.
1.1.1. The Electricity at Work Act 1989 requires that all portable electrical appliances, if used on business premises, are tested by a
qualified electrician, using a Portable Appliance Tester (PAT), at least once a year.
1.1.2. The Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 makes owners of electrical appliances responsible for the safe condition of those
appliances and the safety of the appliance operators. If in any doubt about electrical safety, contact a qualified electrician.
1.1.3. Ensure that the insulation on all cables and on the appliance is safe before connecting it to the power supply.
See 1.1.1. and 1.1.2. and use a Portable Appliance Tester.
1.1.4. Ensure that cables are always protected against short circuit and overload.
1.1.5. Regularly inspect power supply cables and plugs for wear or damage and check all
connections to ensure that none is loose.
1.1.6. Important: Ensure that the voltage marked on the appliance matches the power supply
to be used and that the plug is fitted with the correct fuse - see fuse rating at right.
1.1.7. DO NOT pull or carry the appliance by the power cable.
1.1.8. DO NOT pull the plug from the socket by the cable.
1.1.9. DO NOT use worn or damaged cables, plugs or connectors.
Immediately have any faulty item repaired or replaced by a qualified electrician. When a
BS 1363/A UK 3 pin plug is damaged, cut the cable just above the plug and dispose of
the plug safely.
Fit a new plug according to the following instructions (UK only).
a) Connect the GREEN/YELLOW earth wire to the earth terminal ‘E’.
b) Connect the BROWN live wire to the live terminal ‘L’.
c) Connect the BLUE neutral wire to the neutral terminal ‘N’.
d) After wiring, check that there are no bare wires, that all wires have been correctly
connected, that the cable outer insulation extends beyond the cable restraint and
that the restraint is tight.
Double insulated products, which are always marked with this symbol , are fitted with live (brown) and neutral (blue) wires only. To
rewire, connect the wires as indicated above - DO NOT connect either wire to the earth terminal.
1.1.10. Products which require more than 13 amps are supplied without a plug. In this case you must contact a qualified electrician to ensure
that a suitably rated supply is available. We recommend that you discuss the installation of an industrial round pin plug and socket
with your electrician.
1.1.11. If an extension reel is used it should be fully unwound before connection. A reel with an RCD fitted is preferred since any appliance
plugged into it will be protected. The cable core section is important and should be at least 1.5mm², but to be absolutely sure that the
capacity of the reel is suitable for this product and for others which may be used in the other output sockets, we recommend the use
of 2.5mm² section cable.

WARNING! Familiarise yourself with the hazards of brake fluid - read the manufacturer’s instructions on the container.
3.1. Preparing unit for use.
3.1.1. Before using on a vehicle for the first time, it is necessary to bleed all air out of the unit's system. Ensure that the pressure relief valve
(fig.1.3) is closed and that the pressure knob (fig.1.5) is fully off (anti-clockwise).
3.1.2. Insert the suction pipe into a suitable container of clean brake fluid (which should be mounted in the recess in the back of the unit)
using one of the rubber conical adaptors. Make sure the pipe reaches the bottom of the container.
3.1.3. Attach the universal adaptor to the pressure delivery hose's quick-fit coupling, and place over a suitable container for recovering brake
fluid.
3.1.4. Plug the machine into a suitable mains electrical supply and turn on the unit at the
switch (fig.1.2), as brake fluid is drawn through the unit, air will be expelled from the system.
The pressure may need to be increased slightly by turning the pressure knob clockwise.
When fluid without any air bubbles present, flows from the delivery hose, turn the unit off.
Open the pressure release valve (fig.1.3) to depressurise the unit, ensure the pressure
gauge (fig.1.1) returns to zero, before closing the valve. Disconnect the pressure
delivery hose from the adaptor by releasing the quick-fit coupling. Turn the pressure
knob fully off (anti-clockwise) if it was adjusted during the operation.
3.1.5. Leave the suction pipe connected to the container of clean brake fluid.
The unit is now ready to use
NOTE: The thermal cut out will operate at around 15 minutes of continuous use, so will
not be suitable for vehicle systems that require prolonged diagnostics to bleed the braking
system. The thermal cut-out is a safety feature designed to protect and prolong the life
of the pump.

3.2. Brake bleeding procedure.
DO NOT touch the vehicle’s brake pedal whilst bleeding the brakes.
Refer to the vehicle manufacturer’s instructions for brake bleeding and wheel sequence before proceeding. If no specific instructions from
the vehicle manufacturer exist, follow the instructions detailed below. If the manufacturer has not supplied a specific figure for the
maximum pressure for this operation, it is advised to keep the pressure within the 1.5 to 2Bar range, to avoid damaging the brake
fluid reservoir etc.
Fully prepare the vehicle by jacking it up or by using a ramp, remove the wheels from the vehicle as required to gain access, so that
work can commence as soon as the unit is turned on.
3.2.1. Remove the cap on the vehicle’s brake fluid reservoir. If the brake fluid level is not at its maximum level, top it up. Fit the universal
adaptor to the brake fluid reservoir, tighten it and ensure that there is a good seal.
3.2.2. Connect the pressure delivery hose's quick connector to the universal adaptor.
3.2.3. Ensure that the pressure knob on the unit is fully off (anti-clockwise) and switch on the unit. Adjust the pressure to the required setting
by turning the pressure knob clockwise.
3.2.4. Starting with the wheel furthest away from the brake fluid reservoir, connect one end of the tube from the bleed bottle to the brake
nipple and, using a brake spanner, open the nipple approximately ¼ turn (fig.2), brake fluid will flow through the clear pipe into the
bottle, when there are no visible bubbles in the fluid, tighten the bleed nipple and remove the pipe, taking care not to spill any brake fluid.
3.2.5. Repeat the procedure at each location in turn, as required.
3.2.6. When finished, turn the unit off. Open the pressure release valve to depressurise the unit, allow the pressure gauge to return to zero.
DO NOT attempt to remove the adaptor from the vehicle's brake fluid reservoir, until the unit is de-pressurised. Close the pressure
release valve and turn the pressure knob fully off (anti-clockwise).
3.2.7. Disconnect the pressure delivery hose from the adaptor by releasing the quick-fit coupling. Take care not to spill any brake fluid and
then remove the adaptor from the brake fluid reservoir. Check the level of the brake fluid in the reservoir, any excess fluid should be
removed, or top it up if necessary.
3.2.8. Refit the vehicle's brake fluid reservoir cap.
3.3. Changing the brake fluid.
3.3.1. Carry out the brake bleeding procedure as described in 3.2.
3.3.2. Allow a longer period of time when bleeding, to allow the new fluid to flush out the old fluid.
When new fluid can be seen in the clear tube, tighten the brake nipple.
3.3.3. Repeat this procedure at each wheel in turn.
3.3.4. Disconnect as above (3.2.6. to 3.2.8.).
NOTE: When brake bleeding and/or brake fluid changing is complete, test the action of the brake pedal to ensure that the brakes
are working correctly and are not spongy, before taking the vehicle onto the road.
3.4. Clutch bleeding procedure.
3.4.1. Refer to the relevant vehicle manufacturer’s instructions for clutch bleeding procedure.
If no specific instructions from the vehicle manufacturer exist, the same basic procedures as for brake bleeding can be followed.
