The Julie is a low-pressure system and comes with the same nylon hose
that is used on MAGURA rim brakes. Do NOT use the reinforced hose of the
other disc brakes with “Disc Tube” imprint and do NOT mix and match items
of different MAGURA disc brakes!” Any misuse might cause serious accidents!
Never touch either the rotor or the brake calliper after long braking as this
may cause serious burns.
1.
Remove the wheel so that you have free access to the brake calliper.
Push back both brake pads by putting the transport device or a flat blade screwdriver
into the gap. Move the screwdriver
slowly
back and forth until both calliper pistons are
fully retracted and flush with calliper body.
Never push back the pistons without the brake pads mounted! Open the
brake system only after having fully pushed back the brake pads.
2.
Loosen the brake lever clamping screw with a 5mm allen key. Turn the brake
lever and ensure that the reservoir is horizontal. Squeeze slightly the lever blade and
slide the 2mm allen key between brake lever and lever blade.
3.
Slide the hose protection. Unscrew the sleeve nut on the brake lever with an
8mm open-end wrench and pull the hose out
carefully. Hold the hose carefully to
avoid any loss of oil! Do not squeeze the lever blade with the system open!
4.
Put the hose on a workbench and shorten it with a sharp knife. The best tool is
the MAGURA cutter (code 0321 233).
Do not use saws or pliers!
If your frame is not equipped for routing hydraulic lines you should now mount the
hose fitting kit (available as separate accessory, see magura.com) for your rear brake
according to the instructions that are included in the kit.
6. Shorten the hose
