Any air trapped in the hydraulic circuit acts as a cushion, absorbing much of the pressure applied by
the brake pump and minimising the braking power of the calliper.
The presence of air is signalled by the "sponginess" of the brake and by poor braking.
CONSIDERING THE DANGER FOR VEHICLE AND RIDER, IT IS STRICTLY NECESSARY, AFTER
REFITTING THE BRAKE CALLIPERS AND RESTORING THE BREAKING SYSTEM TO ITS REG-

NOTE

Remove the rubber protection cover of
