BRAKE FLUID REPLACEMENT/AIR
BLEEDING
Check the brake fluid level on level ground.
 When operating the brake lever, the brake
reservoir cap must be tightened securely to
avoid splash of brake fluid.
 When servicing the brake system, use shop
towels to cover plastic parts and coated
surfaces to avoid damage caused by splash
of brake fluid.
BRAKE FLUID BLEEDING
In order to avoid spilling brake fluid, connect a
transparent hose to the bleed valve.
Warning
Spilled brake fluid on brake pads or brake
disk reduces stopping power. Clean the
brake pads and brake disk with a
high-performance brake degreaser.
Fully apply the brake lever and then loosen the
brake caliper bleed valve to drain the brake fluid
until there is no air bubbles in the brake fluid.
Then, tighten the bleed valve.
Repeat these steps until the brake system is free
of air.
BRAKE FLUID REFILLING
Add DOT-4 brake fluid to the brake reservoir.
 When bleeding, be careful not to allow air
in the brake reservoir flowing into the
brake system.
 Never use dirty or unspecified brake fluid
or mix different brake fluids be-cause it
will damage the brake system.
Make sure to bleed air from the brake system.
BRAKE PAD/DISK REPLACEMENT
The brake pads must be replaced as a set to
ensure the balance of the brake disk.
Remove the two bolts attaching the brake caliper.
Remove the brake caliper.
Compress the brake caliper seat, and press down
the fixed-reed to take out the brake pads.
