! WARNING !
If brake fluid level drops below the
minimum or brake system has a
leak or brake pads are completely
worn. In this case, consult an
authorized dealer immediately.
Refilling the rear brake fluid
reservoir
Unscrew the cap (1), diaphragm and
add brake fluid DOT 4 until it reaches
the MAX mark, then place diaphragm
and cap back on. Clear off spilled or
overflowing brake fluid with water.
Checking the rear brake pads (*)
The brake pads can be inspected from
the rear. The thickness of the linings
cannot be less than 1mm.
! WARNING !
At their most worn point brake pad
linings should not be thinner than
1mm, otherwise can lead to brake
failure.
! WARNING !
Store brake fluid out of reach of
children.
Brake fluid can cause skin irritation.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes. If
you get brake fluid in your eyes,
clear with plenty of water and
consult a doctor.
! WARNING !
If brake pads are replaced too late
so that the lining is partly or entirely
worn, steel components of brake
pad will rub against brake disc,
thereby reducing braking effect and
destroying brake disc.
! CAUTION !
Don’t place brake fluid in contact
with paint; it is a powerful paint
remover
Use only clean break fluid or from a
sealed container
Replacing the rear brake pads
Remove the rear wheel – see “REAR
WHEEL REMOVAL” and with a
screwdriver push the brake pads to
move the pistons into their basic
position. Remove clip (1) and then
remove brake pads from the calliper.
Clean the brake calliper thoroughly with
compressed air, insert brake pads and
secure them with the clip. Then place
rear wheel back on.
Note: if necessary, push pads with an
appropriate key in order to place brake
piston away to let brake pads to pass
brake disc.
