Hand brake lever
The basic position of the hand brake lever can be modified by turning the
adjusting screw [1]. This lets you adapt the position of the pressure point (the
resistance you feel on the hand brake lever when the brake pads are pressed
against the brake disk) to fit any hand.
ADJUSTMENT OF THE HAND BRAKE LEVER POSITION IS ONLY POSSIBLE WITHIN
CERTAIN LIMITS. ONLY TURN THE ADJUSTING SCREW MANUALLY AND NEVER APPLY
EXCESSIVE FORCE.
NEVER LOOSEN THE SCREW [2] SINCE THIS COULD CAUSE THE ENTIRE FRONT
BRAKE SYSTEM TO FAIL. THE SCREW IS MARKED WITH A COLORED DOT FOR THIS
REASON.
Replacing the front brake pads *
Remove the securing clip and bolts [3]. Use a screwdriver to carefully press
against the brake pads to move them into the basic position.
Remove the brake pads [4] from the brake caliper and thoroughly clean the
brake caliper with compressed air. Mount the brake pads, mount the bolts [3]
and fasten with the securing clip.
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO KEEP THE BRAKE DISK FREE FROM OIL AND FATTY
MATTERS. OTHERWISE, THE BRAKING EFFECT WOULD BE STRONGLY REDUCED.
AFTER WORKING ON THE BRAKING SYSTEM, ALWAYS ACTUATE THE HAND BRAKE
LEVER OR FOOT BRAKE LEVER, RESPECTIVELY TO ENSURE THAT THE BRAKE PADS
WILL LIE AGAINST THE BRAKE DISK AND THE PRESSURE POINT IS
ESTABLISHED.
