Make sure the rear wheel turns freely after free play
adjustment, so the brake will function properly and not
wear prematurely.
Front brake system inspection:
The right brake lever on your People scooter controls the front
hydraulic brake. Check the fluid level through the inspection
window on the brake fluid master cylinder reservoir. Inspect
the brake pad wear at the front brake caliper.
As the brake pads wear, the brake fluid level drops as the
hydraulic system automatically compensates for the wear.
There are no adjustments to perform, but fluid level and
pad wear must be inspected periodically to make sure the
brakes will function properly.
The system must also be inspected for fluid leaks. Leaks
can cause the system to lose pressure and malfunction.
To prevent damage to the brake system, only use DOT 4
brake fluid from a sealed container. Never allow contami-
nants (dirt, water, etc.) to enter the brake fluid reservoir.
See your KYMCO dealer for this service.
