INSPECTION AND ADJUSTMENT OF BRAKE FREE PLAY
INSPECTION: (Brake lever free play must be checked with
the engine shut off.)
Brake lever free play for front and rear wheels
When checking the hand-braking lever for front and
rear wheels, its free play (the stroke of hand-braking
lever from no braking to initial braking) should be
10~20mm. It is abnormal if the feel is spongy when
holding the hand-braking lever forcefully.
BRAKE LEVER ADJUSTMENT KNOB
operation:
Push the brake lever forward to the end (A), and
turn the span adjustment knob.
There are four positions on the span adjustment
knob; position 1 is the shortest span between the
brake lever and the handgrip with the loosest
braking feel, position 4 is the longest span
between the brake lever and the handgrip with the
tightest braking feel.
DISK BRAKE INSPECTION (Applicable for model equipped with disc brake.)
(Leak, damaged, looseness of brake line)
Visual check brake lines for leakage, or damage,
check brake lines connections for looseness using
a wrench or similar tool, and check whether
steering handle vibration in driving, or any parts'
interference may have damage the brake lines. If
so, bring your scooter to your SANYANG dealer for
repairing or service.
CAUTION:
Please drive your scooter on a dry road surface slowly and operate front and rear brakes in order to find
out if there is any malfunction so as to ensure the scooter is at its optimum condition and safe to ride.
