Checking the rear brake fluid level
Ensure the brake fluid level by looking through sight
D
. The lev-
el should never fall below the mark in the sight.
Restoring the rear brake fluid level
To restore the brake fluid level, unscrew cap
3
and pour in fresh
fluid (IP DOT 4) until the level reaches the mark in sight
D
.
IMPORTANT:
We recommend using DOT 4 brake fluid.
Should this fluid be unavailable, use DOT 5.1 instead. Do
not on any account use DOT 5 brake fluid, a purple liquid
with a base of silicone, as it requires special seals and tubes.
WARNING:
Brake fluid is highly corrosive. Take care not
to drip onto the paintwork.
Bleeding the rear brake
To bleed air from the rear brake circuit, follow these steps:
– Remove rubber cap
E
from valve
F
.
– Unscrew the brake fluid reservoir cap.
– Insert one end of a small tube into valve
F
and place the oth-
er end in a container.
– Unscrew valve
F
(while operating the pedal) and repeatedly
actuate the brake pedal until the oil comes out in an uninter-
rupted flow with no air bubbles. During this operation it is im-
portant that the brake pedal should never be released com-
pletely. Keep pouring brake fluid into the brake pump reservoir
to compensate for the fluid that is flowing out.
– Tighten the valve and remove the tube.
– Replace the cap.
– Fit the reservoir cap on the brake pump.
