SAFETY TEST

Brakes

WARNING
Sudden changes in play or a spongy
feel of the brake lever can be caused by
faults in the hydraulic system. Do not
ride on when in doubt about the oper-
ability of the brake system. Immediately
consult a Sachs dealer.
Check the brake-fluid level
WARNING
Every two years, the brake fluid must
be changed by a Sachs dealer. The
level must not drop below the MIN mark.
Use only brake fluid of the DOT 4 clas-
sification.
If air bubbles can be seen, check the
brake linings for wear; if necessary,
replenish the brake fluid.
CAUTION
Do not spill any brake fluid on painted
or plastic surfaces as it will demage the
surface severely.
