BRAKE SYSTEM
Warning
Danger of accidents Oil or grease on the brake discs reduces the braking effect.
Always keep the brake discs free of oil and grease.
Clean the brake discs with brake cleaner when necessary.
Warning
Danger of accidents Brake linings which have not been approved alter the braking efficiency.
Not all brake linings are tested and approved for Husqvarna motorcycles. The structure and friction coefficient of the brake
linings, and thus their brake power, may vary greatly from that of original brake linings.
If brake linings are used that differ from the original equipment, compliance with the original homologation is not guaran-
teed. In this case, the vehicle no longer corresponds to its condition at delivery and the warranty shall be void.
Only use brake linings approved and recommended by Husqvarna motorcycles.
Warning
Environmental hazard Hazardous substances cause environmental damage.
Dispose of oils, grease, filters, fuel, cleaning agents, brake fluid, etc., correctly and in compliance with the applicable
regulations.
Info
Never use DOT 5 brake fluid. It is silicone-based and purple in color. Oil seals and brake lines are not designed for DOT 5
brake fluid.
Avoid contact between brake fluid and painted parts. Brake fluid attacks paint.
Only use clean brake fluid from a sealed container.
Move the brake fluid reservoir mounted on the handlebar to a horizontal position.
