ROUTINE CHECKS
Brake liquid level
FRONT BRAKE
The front brake consists of a 260 mm dia-
meter disc brake, which is operated by
means of a double-piston radial clip and
hydraulic pump.
The braking surface should be free from
both grease and dirt to ensure perfect ope-
ration. The following procedure should be
followed if you find it necessary to empty
and the refill the brake fluid circuit.
Remove the pump cover and fill almost
completely with brake fluid.
The loosen the bleeding nit and fit a piece
of tubing (for petrol) to this same nnut.
It is recommended that this tube is inserted into some form of container so that there is no spilled fluid.
With the liquid in the pump and the bleeding nut loose, slowly operate the lever until the liquid drops and
exits the tube without any air bubbles. At this point, close the bleeding nut and refill the tank with brake
liquid to the halfway mark. Close the cover and operate until perfect braking is achieved. Check the brake
liquid level through the view-port on the brake pump. Refill if necessary.
