In the picture above, the pump is not running yet. Notice how the liquid
filled-up the circuit by simple gravity
Bleeding the circuit
Now that the circuit is primed, make sure that your pump is connected
to the power supply, then go ahead and power-up your computer.
The pump will start circulating fluid throughout the circuit. Observe for
a moment that the liquid flows vigorously from the discharge tube (Fig
10), and then submerse the tube down to the bottom of the bottle. Let
the system run for about a minute.
Observe in Figure 8 that when you first start filling up the circuit, the
portion of the line comprised between the two T connectors of the fill
and bleed kit will retain a large bubble of air. To remove this bubble,
simply open the main valve for a few seconds while the pump is
running, and then close it again.

TIP!
Observe here that we have not yet
submersed the discharge tube all the
way down into the bottle. This will be
helpful to check that the fluid is flowing
in the next step (Fig 10)
Observe the liquid
flowing vigorously
Troubleshooting note
: If there is no flow after you turned the pump on, chances are that you either didn’t prime your circuit properly, and there is air
in the pump housing, or you didn’t connect your components in the correct sequence. Go back to the Tube Routing section, and make sure that you
followed all our instructions. Once you have discovered the source of the problem, correct it, and restart the above process
IF YOU NEED TO REFILL THE SYSTEM, ALWAYS FLUSH ALL THE LIQUID FROM THE CIRCUIT
FIRST, AS THE PUMP CANNOT CLEAR THE AIR FROM THE SYSTEM. THEN REFILL PER THE
ABOVE PROCEDURE. TIP!
