• If your brakes are fitted with the adjustment
screw (E - Fig. 5), then correct centering (Fig.
6), using a Phillips screwdriver.
• Periodically check the brake pads to insure
that they are about 1 mm from the surface of
the rim (Fig. 6). If this is not the case, adjust the
distance using the cable tension adjustment
screw (C - Fig. 7). If this proves insufficient,
loosen the cable securing screw (B - Fig. 7),
adjust the distance of the pads to the rim, reset
the position of the cable and secure it again by
tightening the cable retainer screw (B - Fig. 7).
• For pad-holders equipped with orbital arti-
culation which can be oriented in all directions
(Fig. 8): adjust the brake pads so that they are
centered in height in relation to the braking
surface of the rim and parallel to it horizontally
and vertically.
WARNING!
Please be sure that you tighten the cable sufficently, without crushing the cable, so
that it does not slip when brakes are applied. A loose or damaged cable can cause
the brake system to malfunction resulting in an accident, personal injury or death.
