ADJUSTING THE REAR BRAKE (Fig. 15)
The brake pedal is positioned ergonomically during
the assembly phase.
If necessary, it is possible to adjust the height of the
brake pedal:
◆ Loosen the lock nut (1).
◆ Unscrew the brake adjuster completely (2).
◆ Screw the lock nut (3) on the pump control rod (4)
completely.
◆ Screw the pump control rod completely (4), then
unscrew it by giving it 3 - 4 turns.
◆ Screw the brake adjuster (2) until the pedal reach-
es the desired height.
◆ Lock the brake adjuster (2) by means of the lock
nut (1).
◆ Unscrew the pump control rod and bring it in con-
tact with the pump piston.
Make sure that there is a certain clear-
ance between the brake adjuster (2) and
the stroke point, to prevent the brake
from remaining in function, which would cause
the untimely wear of the braking elements.
◆ Unscrew the pump control rod (4) and restore the
clearance between the brake adjuster and the
stroke point.
Clearance between brake adjuster and stroke
point: 0,5 ÷ 1 mm.
◆ Lock the pump control rod by means of the lock
nut (3).
Check the braking efficiency.
If necessary, contact your aprilia Official
Dealer.
