WARNING
Proper brake hose routing is essential to
insure safe scooter operation. Refer to
“CABLE ROUTING” in chapter 2.
NOTE:
• While holding the brake hose, tighten the
union bolt as shown.
• Turn the handlebar to the left and to the right
to make sure that the brake hose does not
touch other parts (e.g., wire harness, cables,
leads). Correct if necessary.
CAUTION:
When installing the brake hose onto the
brake master cylinder, make sure the brake
pipe touches the projection
a
on the brake
master cylinder.
4. Connect:
• front brake light switch connector
5. Fill:
• brake master cylinder reservoir
(with the specified amount of the recom-
mended brake fluid)
WARNING
• Use only the designated brake fluid.
Other brake fluids may cause the rubber
seals to deteriorate, causing leakage and
poor brake performance.
• Refill with the same type of brake fluid
that is already in the system. Mixing
brake fluids may result in a harmful
chemical reaction, leading to poor brake
performance.
• When refilling, be careful that water does
not enter the reservoir. Water will signifi-
cantly lower the boiling point of the brake
fluid and could cause vapor lock.
