BRAKE FLUID
RECOMMENDATIONS
CAUTION
This vehicle is fitted with front and rear disc brakes. Each braking system is operated by an independent
hydraulic circuit.
The following information applies to both braking systems.
DANGER
Sudden changes in brake lever play or a spongy feel of the lever may indicate problems with the
hydraulic system.
Ensure that the brake discs have not become contaminated with oil or grease. This is particularly
important after servicing or inspections.
Make sure the brake lines are not twisted or worn.
Prevent accidental entering of water or dust into the circuit.
Wear latex gloves when servicing the hydraulic circuit.
Brake fluid is an irritant. Avoid contact with eyes or skin.
In the event of accidental contact, wash affected body parts thoroughly. In the event of accidental
contact with eyes, contact an eye specialist or seek medical advice.
DO NOT RELEASE BRAKE FLUID INTO THE ENVIRONMENT.
KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN.
WARNING
When handling brake fluid, take care not to spill it onto plastic or paint-finished parts or they will
damage.
DISC BRAKES
DANGER
Brakes are critical safety components and must be kept in perfect working order at all times.
A dirty disc will soil the pads, leading to loss of braking efficiency. Every 400 - 500 Km (245 - 310 mi),
blow the brake callipers with compressed air and sand the calliper area that contacts the disc with
fine-grained sand paper (320/400 grain).
Dirty pads must be replaced, while dirty discs must be cleaned with a high-quality degreaser.
Change brake fluid every two years.
Use the brake fluid specified in the lubricant table, see 2.1.3 (LUBRICANT TABLE).
CAUTION
This vehicle is fitted with a twin-disc front brake (one disc on right side, one on left side) and a single-disc
rear brake (disc on left side).
Brake fluid level decreases gradually as the brake pads wear down.
