Rear brake
The brake fluid tank for the rear disk brake is located on the right-hand side of the vehicle. It is a good thing to check
the fluid level in the tank periodically, and especially before setting off on long journeys. As the brake pads and the disk
become worn,the brake fluid level tends to drop and it is there fore necessary to top it up. Use suitable brake fluid, see
(LUBRICANTS).
For the check:
keep the vehicle upright so that the fluid contained in the tank is parallel with the cap (1).
ensure that the fluid is above the “MIN” mark.
MIN = minimum level
MAX = maximum level
If the fluid is below the “MIN” mark, check the pads and disk for wear and, if in good condition, proceed with topping up.
Do not top up the fluid to the “MAX” level if the pads are worn, because if they are subsequently replaced the brake fluid
would overflow.
