Top-up
•
The following operations refer to one
braking system but they are valid for
both braking systems:
1. Front brake fluid reservoir (1);
2. Rear brake fluid reservoir (2).
CAUTION
RISK OF BRAKE FLUID SPILLS. DO NOT PULL THE
BRAKE LEVER WHEN THE COVER FIXING SCREWS ARE
LOOSE OR, MAINLY, WHEN THE BRAKE FLUID RESER-
VOIR COVER HAS BEEN REMOVED.
•
Undo and remove the two screws fixing
the brake fluid reservoir cover.
CAUTION
AVOID PROLONGED AIR EXPOSURE OF THE BRAKE
FLUID. BRAKE FLUID IS HYGROSCOPIC AND ABSORBS
MOISTURE WHEN IN CONTACT WITH AIR. LEAVE THE
BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR OPEN ONLY FOR THE TIME
NEEDED TO COMPLETE THE TOPPING UP PROCEDURE.
•
Lift and remove the cover and seals.
TO AVOID SPILLING FLUID WHILE TOPPING-UP, KEEP
THE TANK PARALLEL TO THE RESERVOIR EDGE (IN
HORIZONTAL POSITION).
DO NOT ADD ADDITIVES OR ANY OTHER SUBSTANCE TO
THE FLUID.
WHEN USING A FUNNEL OR ANY OTHER ELEMENT,
MAKE SURE IT IS PERFECTLY CLEAN.
•
Top up the tank you are working on un-
til the inspection sight glass is fully cov-
ered
CAUTION
TOP-UP TO MAXIMUM LEVEL MARK ONLY WHEN BRAKE
PADS ARE NEW. BRAKE FLUID LEVEL DECREASES
GRADUALLY AS BRAKE PADS WEAR OUT.
WHEN TOPPING-UP, DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM
LEVEL MARK WHEN BRAKE PADS ARE WORN AS YOU
RISK SPILLING FLUID WHEN CHANGING THE BRAKE
PADS.
•
Check braking efficiency.
