CONTROL LEVER CLEARANCE
The brake control lever is positioned
ergonomically during the assembly of the
vehicle.
If necessary, it is possible to adjust the
brake control lever clearance:
◆
Remove the lower fairing, see p. 107
(REMOVING THE LOWER FAIRING).
◆
Loosen the lock nut (4).
◆
Unscrew the master cylinder control rod
(5) to ensure a minimum clearance of
0.020±0.039 inc (0.5 – 1 mm) between
the rod and the master cylinder piston.
Make sure that there is a certain idle
stroke in the movement of the lever (6),
to prevent the brake from remaining
applied and the consequent untimely
wear of the braking elements.
Lever (6) idle stroke: 0.157 inc (4 mm)
(measured at the lever end).
◆
Lock the pump control rod (5) by means
of the lock nut (4).
After the adjustment, make sure that the
wheel rotates freely with released
brake.
Check the braking efficiency.
If necessary, contact your local aprilia
Dealer.
