Remember: 1 mile = 1.6 km
1 km = 0.625 miles
The following information refer
to a single braking system, but
are valid for both.
Check the brake pad wear after the first
500 km and successively every 2000 km.
The wear of the brake pads depends on
the use, on the kind of drive and on the
road. The wear will be greater when the ve-
hicle is driven on dirty or wet roads.
To carry out a rapid checking of the wear of
the front pads, proceed as follows:
◆
Remove the involved brake caliper, see
beside (REMOVING THE FRONT AND
REAR BRAKE CALIPERS).
◆
Carry out a visual check on the pads.
If the thickness of the friction material
(even of one pad only) has reduced to
about 1 mm, replace both pads.
Have the pads changed by your
DSULOLD
Official Dealer.

Upon disassembly, take care not
to damage the brake pipe, disc
and pads.
The following information refer
to a single braking system, but
are valid for both.
◆
Position the vehicle on the centre stand.
◆
Rotate the wheel manually, so that the
space between two spokes of the rim co-
incides with the brake caliper.
◆
Unscrew and remove the two screws (1).
Brake caliper screw (1) driving torque:
25 Nm (2.5 kgm).
Never pull the rear brake lever
after removing the brake caliper,
otherwise the caliper pistons
may go out of their seats, thus causing
the outflow of the brake fluid.
In this case consult your
DSULOLD
Official
Dealer, who will carry out the proper
maintenance operation.
◆
Remove the brake caliper (2), by careful-
ly withdrawing it from the brake disc.
After reassembly, pull the rear
brake lever repeatedly and
check the correct functioning of
the braking system.
