BRAKES
HYDRAULIC DISC BRAKE
• The maximum brake output is only achieved after a few brake processes with a new
brake disc or brake linings! Danger of accident!
• The brake disc will grow very hot when braking and may cause burns. The disc edges
may also be very sharp and cause cutting injury. Therefore, do not touch them while the
DANGER
disc is hot or turning. Danger of accident!
• Use only Shimano mineral oil for the hydraulic brake system by Shimano; use only DOT4
or an equivalent brake fluid for any other kind. Otherwise, there may be damage, mal-
functions or even brake failure. Danger of accident and damage!
WARNING
SETTING THE DISC BRAKE
Settings usually are not necessary at the hydraulic disc brake system. The brake linings cen-
tre independently by actuation of the brake levers.
REPLACING THE BRAKE LINING
• Replace the brake linings when their thickness is less than 0.5 mm. The brake output
may otherwise drop to complete loss of the brake force and the brake system may
be damaged. Danger of accident and damage!
DANGER
1. Loosen the two clamp screws
mm hexagonal socket wrench.
2. Take the brake calliper
3. Straighten the curved end of the safety pin
tool for this (e.g. pliers).
4. Pull out the safety pin
5. Replace the brake linings
6. Insert the safety pin
end over so that the pin cannot come free of the holder. Use
suitable tools for this
(e.g. pliers).
7. Attach the calliper by tightening the two screws
with a 5 mm hexagonal socket wrench.
8. Actuate the respective brake several times in order to centre
the new brake linings in the brake calliper. If there are still
any grinding sounds, adjust the brake as described in the
chapter Disc brake.
