5. Brake disc assembly
If brake disc has been removed from hub
or is loose, tighten bolts. Use new locking
washers and bend over locking tabs after
bolts are tightened.
6. Air bleeding
-CAUTION:
If the brake system is disassembled or if
any brake hose has been loosened or re-
moved, the brake system must be bled to
remove air from the brake fluid. If the
brake fluid level is very low or brake
operation is incorrect, bleed the brake
system.
a.

C.
d.
Add proper brake fluid to the reservoir.
Install the diaphragm, being careful not
to spill or overflow the reservoir.
Connect the clear plastic tube tightly to
the caliper bleed screw. Put the end of the
tube into a container.
Slowly apply the brake lever several times.
Pull in lever. Hold lever in “on” position.
Loosen bleed screw. Allow the lever to
travel slowly toward its limit. When the
limit is reached, tighten bleed screw.
Continue step C until all air bubbles are
removed from system.
NOTE:
If bleeding is difficult, it may be necessary
to let the brake system stabilize for a few
hours. Repeat bleeding procedure.
5-4. WHEELS, TIRES, TUBES
A. Wheel inspection
Wheels should be inspected frequently. Wheel
run-out is discussed in Chapter 5-1.
B. Tire, tube removal
1. Remove valve cap, valve core and valve
stem lock nut.
2. When all air is out of tube, separate tire
bead from rim (both sides) by stepping on
tire with your foot.
3. Use two wide, flat tire irons with rounded
edges to work the tire bead over the edge
of the rim, starting
180”
o p p o s i t e t h e
tube stem. Be careful not to pinch the
tube as you do this.
4. After you have worked on side of the tire
completely off the rim, slip the tube out.
Be very careful not to damage the stem
while pushing it back out of the rim hole.
NOTE:
If you are changing the tire itself, then
finish the removal by working the second
bead off the rim.
C. Installation
Reinstall the tire and tube by reversing the
disassembly procedure. After the tube has
been installed, but before the tire has been
completely slipped onto the rim, put a small
amount of air into the tube. This removes any
creases that might exist. Release the air and
continue with reassembly. After the tire has
been completely slipped onto the rim, make
sure the stem comes out of the hole in the rim
at a right angle to the rim. Finally inflate the
tire. Refer to PAGE (10).

(22 psi)
NOTE:
Make sure the wheel is balanced every time
the tire is
to “Front wheel
inspection”.)
5-5. REAR WHEEL SPROCKET
1. Bend the lock washer ears flat.
2. Remove the sprocket mounting bolts.
Check the lock washer and bolt for
damage. If the lock washer is not bent
over the hexagon bolt head, or is broken,
or the bolt is loose, the sprocket can come
loose.
