is typically provided at each wheel cylinder Conventionally, the bleeding of air from such hydraulic brake systems has been a two man operation. A first individual repeatedly depresses and releases the brake pedal and a second individual tightens and loosens the brake bleeder valve at the wheel cylinder as the brake pedal is depressed and released. When the brake pedal is being depressed, it is necessary to release the brake bleeder valve, to allow the trapped air to be exhausted.
