Upon reassembly:
a
Neither strike, nor force the cam pin (6)
with hammers or others tools, in order
not to damage the two O-rings.
Manually insert the cam pin (6), rotating and push-
ing it slightly.
a
Make sure that the springs (2) are correct-
ly coupled.
Carefully read p. 27 (BRAKE FLUID (recommen-
dations)), p. 27 (FRONT BRAKE), p. 41 (MAINTE-
c
NANCE).
Remember: 1 mile = 1.6 km
1 km = 0.625 miles
Check the brake pad wear after the first 500 km and
successively every 2000 km.
The wear of the brake pads depends on the use, on
the kind of drive and on the road. The wear will be
greater when the vehicle is driven on dirty or wet
roads.
To carry out a rapid checking of the wear of the front
pads, proceed as follows:
Position the vehicle on the centre stand.
Remove the brake caliper cover (1).
Carry out a visual checking of the friction material
thickness by looking between the brake caliper
and the pads.
If the thickness of the friction material (even of one
pad only) has reduced to about 1 mm, replace both
c
pads.
Have the pads changed by your
Official Dealer.
