The CB360G front bi. :e is a hydraulic
disc type.
When pressure is applied to the brake
lever, brake fluid transmits the pressure
to the brake piston in the caliper, pressing
the friction pads against the disc.
Brake fluid is a medium for transmitting
pressure and plays a vital role in the brake
system. Therefore, when scheduled brake
maintenance is performed, it is imperative
that the front brake system is inspected
to ensure that there is no fluid leakage.
Аз the friction pads wear, additional fluid
is taken into the system from the fluid
reservoir to compensate for the friction
pad wear. Because of this feature, the disc
brake is selfadjusting and the brake con-
trol lever free travel will remain constant
once it has been established, providing
56
the hydraulic system is free of air.
If the control lever free travel becomes
excessive and the friction pads are not
worn
beyond
the recommended
limit
(page 60), there is probably air in the
brake system and it must be bled.
Brake fluid:
The
brake
fluid level in the reservoir
should be checked at regular intervals.
Remove
the reservoir cap, washer and
diaphragm,
and whenever
the level is
lower than the level mark @ engraved
inside the reservoir, fill the reservoir with
DOT 3 BRAKE FLUID up to the level
mark.
Reinstall
the
diaphragm
апа
washer, and tighten the reservoir cap
securely.
