ENGLISH 32 Adjusting the free travel at the hand brake lever Free travel at the hand brake lever may be readjusted by using adjustment screw 1 . In this way, the position of the point of pressure (i.e. the resis- tance you feel on the hand brake lever when the brake pads are pressed against the brake disc) can be adjusted for any hand size. ! CAUTI[...]

ENGLISH 33 Replacing the front brake pads * Press the brake caliper toward the brake disk, to put the brake piston in its basic position. Remove clips 1 and pull out bolt 2 .

ENGLISH 39 Cooling system The water pump in the engine circulates the cooling liquid. However, the cooling liquid can only circulate properly if the cooling circuit contains no air bubbles. Bleeding of the cooling system is therefore required a) after adding more than 0.25 l cooling liquid and b) after refilling the entire cooling system. (see Blee[...]

ENGLISH 40 Refilling/Bleeding the cooling system The cooling system must be bled as described below after draining the cooling liquid or after adding more than 0.25 l (0.06 US gallons) cooling liquid. Make sure that the drain screw 1 is fastened. Pour approx. 0.5 litres (0.13 US gallons) coolant into the system. Remove screw 2 at the cylinder head.[...]

ENGLISH 41 Changing the original position of the clutch lever The adjusting screw 1 can be used for individual adjustment of the original position of the clutch lever, thus allowing adjustment to an optimal position for every hand size.
