4. Slowly compress the left brake lever several times;
then while holding slight pressure on the brake
lever, open the bleed screw and watch for air bub-
bles in the hose. Close the bleed screw before
releasing the brake lever. Repeat this procedure
until no air bubbles are present.
NOTE: During the bleeding procedure, watch the
reservoir sight glass to make sure there is always
a sufficient amount of brake fluid in the reservoir.
Failure to maintain sufficient amount of fluid in the
reservoir will result in air being in the system.
5. Repeat step 4 until the brake lever is firm.
Burnishing Brake Pads
(Rear)
Brake pads must be burnished to achieve full braking
effectiveness. Braking distance will be extended until
brake pads are properly burnished. To properly burnish
the brake pads, use the following procedure.
1. Choose an area large enough to safely accelerate
the ATV to 30 mph and to brake to a stop.
2. Accelerate to 30 mph; then compress brake lever or
apply the auxiliary brake to decelerate to 0-5 mph.
3. Repeat procedure on each brake system five times
until brake pads are burnished.
4. Verify that the brakelight illuminates when the
hand lever is compressed or the brake pedal is
depressed.
