BRAKE LEVER ADJUSTERS
Brake Lever Adjusters
There is an adjuster on each brake lever. Each adjuster
has four positions so that the released lever position can
be adjusted to suit the rider’s hands.
To adjust the distance of the lever from the handlebar grip,
push the lever (1) forward and turn the adjuster knob (2) to
align the numbers with the arrow mark (3) on the lever
holder.
NOTE: The distance from the grip to the release lever
is at its closest at number 4 and furthest away at
number 1.
WARNING
For appropriate brake action, make sure the groove
of the adjusting nut is aligned with the pin in the
brake arm.
WARNING
The brake pads will wear
quickly if the lever is
continually applied during
riding (dragging the brake).
Consult your local
authorized KYMCO dealer
for braking system service.
Inspect the brake pad and shoe thickness to verify that there is enough material for
the brakes to function properly
1. If the wear indicator grooves in the front brake pads(3) or rear brake pads (4)
are no longer visible, it is an indication that the brake pads are worn and
require replacement.
