It is possible that air might have entered the brake system. Purge
the system in the following way:
- Operate the brake lever several times. Fluid starts coming out of
the system through the tube. The transparent tube can be used to
see if there is air, i.e. bubbles, in the system.
- Once the system has been bled, refill the reservoir to the top.
Rear brake pedal
Check the brake operation and make sure it does not rub against
any part of the QUAD. To adjust the pedal play, loosen the locknut,
rotate the bolt, fit the lever in the required position and retighten the
locknut.
WARNING
If the brake pedal has a spongy feel when activated, it may be due
to air in the pump or to a fault. It is dangerous to ride under these
conditions, check the brakes immediately.
CHECKING THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
NOTE
Regularly check the brake fluid and periodically change it. It
should also be changed if it is contaminated by water or dirt.
Fluid level inspection
Front: A small brake fluid reservoir is located to the left of the throttle
grip. If we look at the reservoir carefully, a small transparent bubble
is located on one of the flat sides that will allow us to check what is
happening inside the brake fluid reservoir. If you have just purchased
your quad, nothing can be seen through the bubble because the
reservoir is full, the level will be seen when it is going down.
