disc brake service kit (code: 0721 294)
Don’t panic if the hose snaps! With the disc brake service kit and a separately available
spare hose (see spare parts pages 21/22), this can be repaired easily.
Louise and Louise FR are high-pressure systems and come with a reinfor-
ced hose, the „MAGURA Disc Tube“ wearing also this imprint. The Disc Tube
needs an additional insert for a proper fitting. Never mix and match either the
hoses or other parts from the two models. Any misuse might cause serious
accidents!
1.
Remove the damaged hose from both the brake lever and the caliper.
2
. Prepare a new hose: Use only the reinforced MAGURA Disc Tube (wearing also
this imprint). One end of this hose comes with a pressed fitting, which has to be scr-
ewed into the caliper as described above.
Tightening torque: 6Nm/51 in.lbs.
.
NEVER shorten the MAGURA Disc Tube hose at the end with the pressed
fitting! You could no longer use this hose then.
3
Tighten the prepared end of the new hose onto the caliper.
Tightening torque: 6 Nm/51 in.lbs.
4
Install the hose as described in chapter 6.
After the installation of a new hose you will always have to refill the brake.
The following chapter 9 describes how the filling has to be done.
