To decrease the lever (1) distance from the handgrip, turn the adjuster screw

the lever stroke.

MIN
If the brake lever feels mushy when pulled, there may be air in the brake
line or the brake may be defective: CHECK THE BRAKING SYSTEM
(see Section "L").
Too much brake lever free play may reduce braking action: CHECK
BRAKE PAD THICKNESS (see Section "L").
Do not spill brake fluid onto any painted surface or lens (for example lights
lens).
Do not mix two brands of fluid. Completely change the brake fluid in the
brake system if you wish to switch to another fluid brand.
Brake fluid may cause irritation. Avoid contact with skin or eyes. In case
of contact, flush thoroughly with water and call a doctor if your eyes were
exposed.
