BREMBO RADIAL FRONT BRAKE PUMP
(SMR)
ADJUSTING THE LEVER POSITION
The position of the front brake lever relative to the grip can be altered
using the adjusting ring (1). Turn it clockwise to move the lever away, or
anti-clockwise to move the lever closer.
WARNING
- When the operation is complete, check that there is at least 3 mm of
play in the front brake lever before the brake is engaged and that the
front wheel can turn freely with the lever at rest. If this play is missing,
pressure builds in the braking system and the front wheel brake may
fail due to overheating or the wheel locking.
CHECKING BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
The fluid reservoir (2) is transparent and allows fluid level inspection. With
the reservoir in an upright position, the fluid level must always be between
the MAX and MIN indications.
DANGER
- IF THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL DROPS BELOW THE MINIMUM VALUE,
THIS MEANS THERE IS A LEAK IN THE BRAKING SYSTEM OR THAT THE
BRAKE PADS ARE WORN BEYOND THE LIMITS ALLOWED.
TOPPING UP BRAKE FLUID
Unscrew and remove the cover (3) and the membrane (4). Place the
reservoir in a vertical position and top up with DOT4 brake fluid, up to the
MAX limit on the reservoir. Refit the membrane and cover, then tighten
them.
Use water to wash away any brake fluid that overflowed or was spilled.
DANGER
- STORE BRAKE FLUID OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
- BRAKE FLUID MAY IRRITATE SKIN. AVOID CONTACT WITH SKIN AND
EYES. IF BRAKE FLUID SPLASHES IN YOUR EYES, RINSE THOROUGHLY
WITH WATER AND SEEK MEDICAL ADVICE.
WARNING
- Prevent contact between brake fluid and painted parts. Brake fluid
corrodes paint.
- Only use clean brake fluid from a hermetically sealed container.
