03_23
Rear optical unit (03_23)
To change the tail-light and rear turn indicator bulbs unscrew the screws " D " on the
central plastic cover (the turn indicator covers are attached to it). To remove the bulbs
press them slightly, turning counterclockwise for around 30° and then extract them.
To refit carry out the above steps in the reverse order.
03_24
Rear-view mirrors (03_24)
To adjust the position of the rod remove rubber cap « A » and loosen the screws, then
put the rod in the appropriate position and tighten the screws. The mirror is fitted with
a ball and socket joint so that it can be adjusted by applying slight pressure to the
edges.
03_25
Front and rear disc brake (03_25, 03_26)
The brake disc and pad wear is automatically compensated, therefore it has no effect
on the functioning of the front and rear brakes. For this reason it is not necessary to
adjust the brakes. An excessively elastic brake lever stroke may indicate the presence
of air in the braking circuit or an irregular brake operation. In this case, mainly due to
the importance of brakes to guarantee safe riding conditions, the vehicle should be
taken to an
Authorised Piaggio-Gilera Service Centre in order to be checked.
CAUTION
BRAKING SHOULD BEGIN AFTER ABOUT 1/3 OF THE BRAKE LEVER STROKE.
