Front Brake
WARNING
Once a bottle of brake fluid is opened, use what is necessary and discard the rest. Do not store or
use a partial bottle fluid. Brake fluid is hygroscopic, meaning it rapidly absorbs moisture from the
air. This causes the boiling temperature of the brake fluid to drop, which can lead to early brake
fade and the possibility of serious injury.
The front brake is hydraulic disc brakes which are depressing the foot pedal on the
right floorboard. These brakes are self-adjusting and require no adjustment.
The following checks are recommended to keep the brake system in good operating
condition. How often they need checking depends upon the type of driving that has
been done.
·
Keep fluid level in the master cylinder reservoirs as described see “7. Control and
parts functions”. Normal functioning of the diaphragm is to extend into the reservoir
as fluid lever drops. If the fluid lever is low and the diaphragm is not extended, a leak
is indicated and the diaphragm should be replaced. Always fill the reservoir as
indicated whenever the cover is loosened or removed to insure proper diaphragm
operation. Use DOT 3 brake fluid.
·
Check brake system for fluid leaks.
·
Check brake for excessive travel
or spongy feel.
·
Check friction pads for wear,
damage and loosened.
·
Check security and surface
condition of the disc.
·
Pads should be changed when
friction material is worn to 3/64” (1 mm)(A).
