MAINTENANCE AND ADJUSTMENT
Brake fluid level inspection and
adjustment
Regularly inspect the brake fluid level in both
brake master cylinder reservoirs.
Check the brake fluid levels in both brake
master cylinder reservoir windows (1). Top
up the brake fluid levels as necessary and
replace the brake fluid in accordance with
the scheduled maintenance requirements.
Only use brake fluid recommended by
Maeving. For further information, see
Specifications on page 69.
Make sure that your motorcycle is placed
on a flat, firm and level surface with the
motorcycle horizontal.
Note : The brake fluid level must
remain above the minimum (lower-
level) indicator (1) on both brake
master cylinder reservoirs.
To adjust the brake fluid level:
1. Place a protective cloth around the area,
to prevent brake fluid from making
contact with any painted surface.
2. Thoroughly clean around the top of the
brake master cylinder reservoir cover.
3. Remove the screws securing the
cover (2), and remove the cover and
diaphragm seal.
4. Top up the brake fluid to the maximum
level line (3).
Note : Only use the recommended
brake fluid from a new and sealed
container.
5. Refit the diaphragm seal and the cover
to the brake master cylinder reservoir.
Note : Make sure that the diaphragm
seal is correctly positioned between
the master cylinder body and the
cover before refitting.
6. Refit the screws to the cover.
7. Tighten the screws to
2-3 Nm
.
8. Thoroughly clean around the reservoir’s
cover.
9. Remove the protective cloth.
Warning : If there has been an
excessive drop in the brake fluid
level and the brake pads are within
their serviceable limits, you may
have a brake fluid leak. Check the
hoses, hose joints and around
the caliper seals, and consult the
Maeving Workshop Team or a
Maeving Workshop Partner.
