The brake pads must be controlled from the rear side. The thickness

of the pad friction material must not be less than 1 mm.

AT THE THINNEST POINT, THE THICKNESS OF THE BRAKE PAD FRICTION

MATERIAL MUST NOT BE LESS THAN 1 MM, OTHERWISE A FAULT COULD

OCCUR IN THE BRAKES. IN THE INTEREST OF YOUR SAFETY HAVE THE PADS

REPLACED IN TIME.

WARNING

IF THE BRAKE PADS ARE REPLACED TOO LATE SO THAT THE FRICTION

MATERIAL IS COMPLETELY CONSUMED, THE STEEL PARTS OF THE PADS RUB

ON THE DISC. THIS LEADS TO A NOTEWORTHY DECREASE OF THE BRAKING

EFFECT AND DAMAGE OF THE BRAKE DISC.

FOR ALL MODELS WITH FLOATING CALIPER (END/MX/SMR/SMX)

Push the brake caliper (1) towards the disc, until the piston reaches its

base position. Remove the cap (2) using a screwdriver, unscrew the

pin (3) and slide the brake pad out. Pay attention to the plates (4)

placed between the pads: these must be remounted accurately. Clean

the brake caliper with compressed air and check that the drive pin

sheaths are not damaged.

Remount the new pads, paying attention to the positioning of the plates,

insert the pin, re-screw it and tighten. Remount the tap using a

screwdriver. Tighten well.

FOR ALL MODELS WITH FIXED CALIPER (SMM)

Remove the safety ring and slide the pin out hitting with a pin-puller

with 4mm. diameter on the same side where the safety ring is found.

- THE BRAKE DISC MUST ALWAYS BE PERFECTLY CLEAN FROM OIL AND

GREASE. OTHERWISE THE BRAKING EFFECT WOULD BE GREATLY

REDUCED.

- AFTER MOUNTING, CHECK THAT THE SAFETY DEVICES ARE POSITIONED

CORRECTLY.

- AFTER EVERY INTERVENTION ON THE BRAKING SYSTEM, ACTIVATE THE

FRONT BRAKE LEVER AND THE REAR BRAKE PEDAL TO MAKE THE PADS

ADHERE TO THE DISC AND TO RESTORE THE CORRECT ADJUSTMENT

OF PLAY.

Position the motorcycle with the frame cradle on a stand in a way that

the front wheel does not touch the ground.

Loosen the flanged nut (5), loosen the fastening screws on the left and

right fork shoes (6), finish unscrewing the flanged nut.

Holding the front wheel still, slide the wheel axle out (7).

If necessary, to help the wheel axle to exit, strike lightly with a mallet

(hammer with plastic ends) on the threaded end of the axle itself.

Alternatively, use a normal hammer and place a piece of wood between.

NEVER USE THE HAMMER DIRECTLY ON THE AXLE, YOU RISK TO

DAMAGE THE AXLE IRREVERSIBLY.

Slide the front wheel carefully out of the fork.
