Inspect the Rear Brake
1. The free travel of the rear brake pedal can be
adjusted by the adjusting nut at the brake ram, so
that the free travel of the rear brake pedal is the
standard value. After the pedal is braked several
times, then release and rotate the rear wheel
assembly to ensure that the rear wheel rotates
freely.
2. When the brake pedal handle is soft or slack, it
indicates that there is air in the hydraulic brake
system and the air MUST be removed from the
system.
3. Remove the rear brake disc and check the wear of
the brake discs. If the thickness is less than the
maintenance limit of 2.0mm, it should be replaced.
4. The standard distance of the rear brake pedal
stroke is 20mm-30mm.

The incorrect adjustment or failure of the braking system can be
extremely dangerous and could result in serious accident, damage
or injury.
When ever you have adjusted the brakes, ensure that you test that
the brakes are functioning on a quite section of road, away from
traffic, before proceeding to normal
