Front Brake
Front Wheel and Middle Axle Brake
The front and middle axle brakes are hydraulic disc brakes and are
activated by moving the brake lever toward the handlebar. These
brakes are self-adjusting and require no adjustment.
The following checks are recommended to keep the brake system in
good operating condition. Check more often if brakes are used heavily
under normal operation.
1. Always keep brake fluid at an
adequate level (see page 36).
NOTE: Under normal functioning
the diaphragm extends
into the reservoir as fluid
level drops. If the fluid
level is low and the
diaphragm is not
extended, a leak is likely
and the diaphragm should
be replaced. Always fill
the reservoir as needed
whenever the cover is
loosened or removed to
ensure proper diaphragm
operation.
2. Check the brake system for fluid
leaks.
3. Check the brakes for excessive
travel or spongy feel.
4. Check the friction pads for wear,
damage and looseness.
5. Check the security and surface
condition of the disc.
NOTE: Replace brake pads when
they are worn to 3/64″ (.1 cm).
