WARNING
Failing to inspect and maintain your ATV’s brake system properly could
be hazardous.
Improper maintenance of the brake increases your chance of having an
accident.
Be sure to inspect the brake before riding according to the INSPECTION
BEFORE RIDING section. Always maintain your brakes according to the
MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE.
WARNING
Operating the ATV in harsh conditions could be hazardous if you do not
inspect brake wear often.
Operating in mud, water, sand, or other extreme conditions can cause
accelerated brake wear. This could lead to an accident.
If you operate your vehicle under these conditions, the brake must
be inspected more often than recommended in the MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULE.
1. Inspect the front disk brake caliper for leakage. If brake uid leaks,
the safety of riding could be affected.
2. Inspect the brake hose for cracks, and the joint for leakage.
3. Check the brake uid level in the brake uid reservoir, if level is low
inspect brake pads for wear and hydraulic system for leaks.
4. To add brake uid, unscrew the 2 screws on top of the bake uid
container. Add DOT3 or DOT4 brake uid. Do not mix brake uid types.
