Front brake lever adjustment and fluid level check
The adjuster (1) located on the control lever, allows adjusting of the free play
(a). Free play (a) must be at least 0,39 in. (10 mm).
The level of the fluid in master cylinder reservoir must never be below the mini
-
mum value (2), which can be checked from the inspection window on the rear of
the master cylinder body. A decrease of the fluid level will let air into the system,
hence an extension of the lever stroke.
If the brake lever feels mushy when pulled, there may be air in the
brake line or the brake may be defective: CHECK THE BRAKING
SYSTEM (see Section "L").
Too much brake lever free play may reduce braking action: CHECK
BRAKE PAD THICKNESS (see Section "L").
Do not spill brake fluid onto any painted surface or lens (for example
lights lens).
Do not mix two brands of fluid. Completely change the brake fluid
in the brake system if you wish to switch to another fluid brand.
Brake fluid may cause irritation. Avoid contact with skin or eyes.
In case of contact, flush thoroughly with water and call a doctor if
your eyes were exposed.
