Danger of accident due to restricted or blocked steering movement
because brake hose is too short or too long.
Make.sure.that.there.is.full.steering.movement.in.both.directions.
Î –
Keep.the.length.of.the.brake.hose.as.short.as.possible.and.as.long.as.
Î –
necessary.
Oil loss.
The.brake.hose.may.have.to.be.disconnected.from.the.brake.cylinder.for.
the.following.steps.
Do.not.actuate.the.brake.lever.if.the.brake.hose.is.disconnected.
Î –
Handle.the.open.brake.hose.carefully.–.do.not.shake.it,.knock.it.or.hit.it.

Î –
stem.are.in.their.final.position.and.do.not.need.to.be.raised,.extended.
or.adjusted.in.any.way.

A.thin.wire.may.be.helpful.for.inserting.the.brake.hose.through.the.
L L
bicycle.frame...
Run.it.in.the.opposite.direction.through.the.outlet.to.the.inlet.of.the.
frame.and.fix.it.to.the.end.of.the.brake.hose.with.adhesive.tape..Do.not.
insert.the.wire.into.the.brake.hose.–.you.will.lose.oil!..
Carefully.pulling.with.the.wire.and.pushing.the.brake.hose.at.the.same.
time.will.make.it.easier.to.find.the.outlet.
Before.installing.your.brake.decide.which.brake.lever.(right.or.left).you.
L L
want.to.allocate.to.your.front.wheel.or.rear.wheel.
When.installing.the.brake.hose.for.the.rear.wheel.brake.use.the.practi-
L L
cal.MAGURA.hose.holder.–.available.in.different.models.
Installation.and.setting.of.the.brake.cylinders.can.be.made.significantly.

easier.if.the.corresponding.wheel.is.mounted.in.the.frame.or.fork.–.
preferably.without.a.tire.fitted.
