The two connector lines that run between pilot and co-pilot master cylinders are identical. Use the procedure below to replace either of them.
Task Instructions
1. Cut and remove the cable tie holding the center of the brake lines to the structure.
2. Disconnect the brake line by using an 11mm wrench to hold the HYD-006P adapter fitting in the brake cylinders and a 1/2 inch wrench to spin off the B-nut on both ends of the line. Cap or plug the openings to minimize fluid loss. Remove the line.
3. Cut a 36.5-inch length of brake hose.
4. Terminate both ends of the hose with HYD-008P B-nut fittings. (General Brake Line Termination Procedure)
5. Wrap the entire length of each brake line with spiral wrap.
6. Route the line as shown in Figure 305.

7. Connect the brake line to the adapter fittings on the master cylinders.
8. Use an 11mm wrench to hold the adapter fitting in the cylinder and a 1/2 inch wrench to torque each B-nut to 120-132 in-lbs.
9. Cut a 3-inch length of silicone tape and wrap it around the brake line where it will be secured to the cable tie anchor block.
10. Secure the two lines to each other and to the cable tie anchor block with a cable tie.
11. Verify that the line is routed correctly and pilot’s and co-pilot’s rudder pedals move through their full travel and adjustment range freely with no brake line interference.
12. Bleed the brakes per the procedure in the Beringer Manual.
Verification Method
