EBS00087
CHECKING THE REAR BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
1. Place the machine on a level surface.
TIP
When checking the brake fluid level, make sure
that the top of the brake master cylinder reser-
voir or brake fluid reservoir is horizontal.
2. Check:
• brake fluid level
Below the minimum level mark
the recommended brake fluid to the proper
level.
Recommended brake fluid
DOT 4
WARNING
• Use only the designated brake fluid.
Other brake fluids may cause the rubber
seals to deteriorate, causing leakage and
poor brake performance.
• Refill with the same type of brake fluid that
is already in the system. Mixing brake flu-
ids may result in a harmful chemical reac-
tion, leading to poor brake performance.
• When refilling, be careful that water does
not enter the brake fluid reservoir. Water
will significantly lower the boiling point of
the brake fluid and could cause vapor
lock.
NOTICE
Brake fluid may damage painted surfaces
and plastic parts. Therefore, always clean
up any spilt brake fluid immediately
TIP
In order to ensure a correct reading of the
brake fluid level, make sure that the top of the
brake master cylinder reservoir or brake fluid
reservoir is horizontal.
