(sold separately)

Cover (sold separately)

Attach the cover to

the connecting bolt

for the brake lever.

In order to check that the end of the hose is fitted

securely into the base of the hose mount of the

brake lever, make a mark on the hose beforehand

as shown in the illustration. (As a guide, the length

of hose inside the mount should be approximately

14 mm, measured from the cut end of the hose.)

Mark

Approx. 14 mm

Use an object such as a needle to smooth the inside

of the cut end of the hose, and then install the

connector insert. Attach the hose to the TL-BH61 as

shown in the illustration, and secure the TL-BH61 in

a vise. Then use a hammer or similar tool to knock

the connector insert in firmly until the base of the

connector insert touches the end of the hose. If the

end of the hose is not touching the base of the

connector insert, the hose may become

disconnected or fluid leaks may occur.
