Checking the brake fluid level

Pic. 13. Brake fluid reservoir

The brake fluid reservoir is located at the top, above the master brake cylinder. This reservoir is transparent, so the brake fluid level is visible from the outside. Always maintain the fluid level at the mark «Max» (pic. 13). If necessary, unscrew the plug and add fresh brake fluid.

If there is a frequent decrease in the level of the brake fluid, then it can be assumed that the lining of the brake pads in the main brake mechanism of the front wheel has worn out.

Note: Brake fluid must be changed at least once every two years.
