Speċifikazzjonijiet

Linji Gwida għall-Installazzjoni

Installation of brake lines should only be performed by qualified personnel with appropriate tools and safety equipment. Improper installation can lead to brake system failure and serious injury.

Għodod u Materjali Meħtieġa:

• Flare nut wrenches
• Brake fluid (compatible with your vehicle)
• Ixxotta taġen
• Nuċċalijiet u ingwanti tas-sigurtà
• Torque wrench

Passi ta' Installazzjoni:

1. Is-Sigurtà l-Ewwel: Ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported on jack stands. Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery.
2. Ixxotta l-Fluwidu tal-Brejkijiet: Place a drain pan under the master cylinder or the lowest point of the brake system. Open the bleeder valves to drain the old brake fluid.
3. Remove Old Line: Carefully loosen and remove the fittings connecting the old brake line. Be prepared for residual brake fluid to leak.
4. Spezzjona Konnessjonijiet: Before installing the new line, inspect the mating surfaces for corrosion or damage. Clean as necessary.
5. Install New Line: Route the new AGS BL520 brake line exactly as the original. Ensure there are no kinks or sharp bends. Hand-tighten the fittings first to avoid cross-threading.
6. Issikka l-Fittings: Using a flare nut wrench, tighten the fittings to the manufacturer's specified torque. Tissikkax iżżejjed.
7. Imla mill-ġdid u Fsada: Refill the master cylinder with new, clean brake fluid. Bleed the entire brake system according to your vehicle's service manual to remove all air.
8. Iċċekkja għal Tnixxijiet: After bleeding, apply firm pressure to the brake pedal and check all new connections for leaks. Repeat this process several times.
9. Test Drive: Perform a low-speed test drive in a safe area to confirm proper brake function before normal operation.

Operazzjoni

The AGS BL520 Brake Line is a passive component within your vehicle's hydraulic braking system. Its primary function is to safely transfer hydraulic pressure from the master cylinder to the brake calipers or wheel cylinders, enabling the vehicle to slow down or stop. Once properly installed and the brake system is bled, the brake line operates continuously as part of the braking circuit.

Proper operation relies on a sealed system free from leaks and air. Any compromise to the integrity of the brake line or its connections will directly impact braking performance.

Manutenzjoni

Regular inspection and maintenance are crucial for the longevity and safety of your brake system, including the AGS BL520 Brake Line.

• Spezzjoni Viżwali: Periodically inspect the brake line for signs of corrosion, kinks, dents, or abrasions. Pay close attention to the areas around the fittings.
• Verifiki tat-Tnixxijiet: Check for any signs of brake fluid leaks around the fittings or along the length of the line. Even small leaks can indicate a serious problem.
• Kundizzjoni tal-Fluwidu: Ensure brake fluid levels are maintained and the fluid itself is clean. Contaminated or old brake fluid can degrade internal components and lead to line failure.
• Immuntar Sikur: Verify that the brake line is securely fastened by its mounting clips or brackets, preventing excessive vibration or rubbing against other components.
• Kontroll Professjonali: It is recommended to have your brake system, including brake lines, inspected by a certified mechanic during routine vehicle maintenance.

Issolvi l-problemi

If you experience issues with your braking system after installing or while using the AGS BL520 Brake Line, consider the following common problems and solutions:

• Pedala tal-Brejk Artab jew Sponġjuża:

  Kawża Possibbli: Air in the brake lines.
  Soluzzjoni: Re-bleed the entire brake system thoroughly. Ensure all bleeder valves are properly sealed after bleeding.

• Brake Fluid Leak:

  Kawża Possibbli: Loose or improperly tightened fittings, damaged line, or faulty flare.
  Soluzzjoni: Inspect all connections for tightness. If a leak persists, the line or fitting may be damaged and require replacement. Do not drive the vehicle with a brake fluid leak.

• Brakes Not Engaging Properly:

  Kawża Possibbli: Insufficient hydraulic pressure due to air, leaks, or a blockage.
  Soluzzjoni: Check for leaks and air in the system. Ensure the brake line is not kinked or obstructed. Verify master cylinder function.
• Unusual Noises from Brakes:

  Kawża Possibbli: While brake lines themselves typically do not cause noise, issues with other brake components (pads, rotors, calipers) can be exacerbated by a compromised hydraulic system.
  Soluzzjoni: Inspect the entire brake system, including pads, rotors, and calipers, for wear or damage. Ensure the brake line is not rubbing against other components.

Nota: For any persistent or severe braking issues, consult a certified automotive technician immediately. Do not attempt to drive a vehicle with compromised brakes.
