need to get my brakes bled after replacing certain pipes, master and wheel cylinders.
my question is do I need to adjust all the wheels first or can I do them one by one as I go round bleeding each corner?
what's the best way to adjust the front drums and do the adjusters all go a certain way? I.e clockwise/ anticlockwise?

[ukcooper]

lock all the wheels up with the adjusters  then bleed the system

 

 

n/s/r

o/s/r

n/s/f

o/s/f  basically farest away from the peal working closer bleeding order

 

then back off the adjusters 

 

if you have a air lock take it a bumpy drive and try again carefuff as you have no brakes

 

the propa square spanner is great, don't forget to check for damaged cylinders leacky

The front adjusters should be turned in the direction of the wheels moving forwards, the back are clockwise to tighten.
