REPLACING THE BRAKE PADS
The procedure for replacing the brake pads
is provided only for information. We rec-
ommend having the operation performed
by a BETAMOTOR authorized workshop.
FRONT
Follow these steps to replace the pads:
•Push the brake caliper towards the disc
so that the pistons reach their home posi-
tions.
•Unscrew dowel A.
•Pull out pin B while supporting the two
pads as shown in the figure.
•Remove the brake pads taking care not
to drop the leaf spring located under the
pads.
•To reassemble, follow the reverse proce-
dure. When fitting the pads, ensure that
the leaf spring is properly in place.
WARNING
The brake disc must always be kept free
from oil and grease. An oily or greasy disc
strongly reduces the braking action.
After work has been carried out on the
braking system, pull the brake lever to bring
the pads into contact with the disc. This
will allow the correct pressure point to be
restored, thus ensuring proper operation
of the braking system.
