[. . . ] CAUTION*:Do not mix two brands of fluid. Change the brake fluid in the brake line if you wish to switch to another fluid brand. In case of contact, flush thoroughly with water and call a doctor if your eyes were exposed. REAR BRAKE PEDAL POSITION ADJUSTMENT The position of the rear foot brake pedal as to the footrest may be adjusted according to the individual needs. For the adjusting proceed as follows: - loosen the screw (1); - turn the cam (2) in order to adjust the brake pedal idle stroke (A); - the operation done, tighten the screw (1). REAR BRAKE IDLE STROKE ADJUSTMENT The rear brake foot pedal should have a (B) 5 mm (0. ) idle stroke before starting the true braking action. Should this not happen, operate as follows: - loosen nut (3); - operate the pump rod (4) to increase or decrease the idle CHECKING THE FLUID LEVEL The level (A) must be set between the pump tank notches. WARNING When the idle stroke figures are not met, the brake pads will be subjected to a fast wear that may bring to the TOTAL BRAKE INEFFECTIVENESS. ADJUSTING THE SUSPENSIONS ACCORDING TO PARTICULAR TRACK CONDITIONS The following information is a useful guide for setting up the suspensions according to the road conditions. Always start from the standard calibration before making any change on the suspensions. The softer adjustment for the two suspensions is also used both in compression and in extension when driving at top speed, in order to have better grip of the tires. SANDY GROUND Fork: have a harder compression adjustment, or replace the standard spring with a harder one, and make a softer compression adjustment and a harder extension adjustment at the same time. shock absorber: have a harder compression , and expecially a harder extension adjustment. Work on the spring preload to lower the motorcycle rear side. We advise replacing the springs of both suspensions to compensate the weight increase due to the piling of the mud. NOTE: When the fork results as either too soft or too hard for any adjustment conditions, check the oil level inside the forkrod. The level can either be too low or too high. Remember that too much oil inside the fork will involve a more frequent air drainage. When the suspensions do not react to the changes of calibration, check that the adjusting units are not blocked. ADJUSTING THE COMPRESSION FORK a) COMPRESSION (CR: UPPER REGISTER; WR: LOWER REGISTER) Standard calibration: -9 clicks (CR) Standard calibration: -10 clicks (WR) Remove plug (B) and turn register (A) clockwise until the position of fully closed is reached then, turn back by the mentioned clicks. B) EXTENSION (CR: LOWER REGISTER; WR: UPPER REGISTER) Standard calibration: -13 clicks (CR) Standard calibration: -10 clicks (WR) To reset standard calibration turn register (C) clockwise to reach the position of fully closed; then, turn back by the mentioned clicks. [. . . ] - Empty the fuel from the fuel tank, and empty the carburetor float bowl. WARNING Never litter the environment with fuel, and let the engine running in open air, never in closed rooms. Avoid getting oil on rubber parts or in the brakes. - Set the motorcycle on a box or stand so that both wheels are raised off the ground. [. . . ]
