LUBRICATION
The brake lever and brake caliper pivot points should be oiled with 2-3 drops
of light oil at least every three months to ensure smooth operation and to
reduce wear. Cables should be greased along their entire length, after
removing them from their casings, at least every six months. Always grease
new cables before fitting.
ADJUSTMENT - SIDEPULL CALIPERS
Minor brake adjustment can be made via the cable adjusting barrel, usually
located at the upper cable arm.
Caution: The brake cable adjusting barrels are for minor adjustments only.
For major adjustments see the appropriate section in the manual for the
type of brakes on your bicycle.
To adjust, squeeze the brake pads against the rim, loosen the locknut and
turn the adjuster. Brake pad clearance should be a maximum 2mm from the
rim. When correct, retighten the lock nut. If the pads cannot be set close
enough to the rim in this manner, you may have to adjust the cable length.
Screw the barrel adjuster 3/4 of the way in, squeeze the pads against the rim,
undo the cable anchor bolt and pull the cable through with pliers. Retighten
the cable anchor bolt and apply full force to the brake lever to test, then fine
tune using the barrel adjuster. If one pad is closer to the rim than the other,
loosen the fixing nut at the back of the brake, apply the brake to hold it
centered, and retighten the fixing nut.
WARNING! Ensure the brake fixing nut is secured tightly. Failure to do
this may cause the brake assembly to dislodge from the fork/frame.
