Checking the brake oil level (03_07, 03_08)
The front brake reservoirs are mounted on the handlebar. The reservoirs are fitted
with an inspection hole, "
A ", on the side; this allows to check the fluid level within the
reservoir. When inspection hole " A " is completely covered, the fluid level within the
reservoir is above the min mark, when the hole is partially covered, the level is below
the min mark, and when the hole is completely clear, the fluid level is below the min.
A decrease of the brake fluid level may be caused by the wear of the pads. If the level
is below the min mark, we recommend that you contact an
Authorised Piaggio-Gilera
Service Station to have your braking system checked. If necessary, top-up the fluid
level as follows. Loosen screws " B ", lift reservoir cover " C " and pour in the amount of
fluid needed (considering that the fluid must always be above the min level). The level
check must be carried out with the reservoir perfectly horizontal, i.e. with the front
wheel aligned to the vehicle's longitudinal axis, paying attention not to lean the vehicle
on the side.
CAUTION
TOP UPS SHOULD ONLY BE CARRIED OUT WITH DOT 4 CLASSIFIED BRAKE
FLUID.
