WARNING
Riding this ATV after brake system
repair or brake pedal replacement
without pumping the brake lever/
pedal can be hazardous.
If you do not pump the brake
lever/pedal before starting, you
may get poor braking performance
and this may result in an accident.
Pump the brake lever/pedal sev-
eral times until brake pads are
pressed against the brake disks
and proper lever/pedal stroke and
firm feel are restored.
WARNING
Replacing only one of the two
brake pads can be hazardous.
Replacing only one brake pad can
result in uneven braking action.
Replace both pads together.
