WARNING*:
Brake fluid quickly ruins painted surfaces; any
spilled fluid should be completely wiped up im-
mediately.
* Brake fluid may cause irritation. Avoid con-
tact with skin or eyes. In case of contact, flush
thoroughly and call a doctor if your eyes were
exposed.
Periodically check the connecting hoses (see
"Periodical maintenance card"): if the hoses
(A) and (B) are worned or cracked, their re-
placement is advised
A
FRONT BRAKING SYSTEM BLEEDING
The braking system must be bled after the fluid
replacement or when, due to air in the circuit, the
lever stroke is long and spongy.
Proceed as follows:
- Remove the rubber cap on the bleeding valve
(1).
- Attach a clear plastic hose to the bleeding valve
on the brake caliper and turn the other end of
the hose into a container (make sure that the
end of the hose is submerged in brake fluid dur-
ing the entire bleeding operation).
