Inspecting the brakes
WARNING Danger from heavy falls
Failing brakes always result in dangerous riding situations, falls and accidents. A brake malfunction
is a serious danger to safety.
·
Pay particular attention when checking your brake system.
·
Under no circumstances should you continue using your EPAC if it has any defects. Contact your
specialist workshop immediately if you discover any defects and the requirements referred to in
sections 6.7.1 and 6.7.2 are not fulfilled.
NOTE:
During prolonged tours over several days the brake disc and brake linings can become severely worn.
·
You should plan tours lasting several days in such a way that you can have any necessary
servicing work carried out at specialist workshops.
·
As a precaution you should carry brake linings for your brakes with you. If you do this you will
avoid having to break off your tour if the specialist workshop does not have your type of brake
linings in stock.
