MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION Brakes 2. Check the brake system for fluid leaks. 3. Check the brakes for excessive travel or spongy feel. 4. Check the friction pads for wear, damage and looseness. 5. Check the security and surface condition of the disc. NOTE: Pads should be changed when worn to 3/64″ (.1 cm), or about the thickness of a U.S. dime. 3/64″ (.1 cm) Auxiliary Brake The auxiliary brake system is intended to be used as a backup for the main brake system. Should the main system fail, the rear brake can be activated by depressing the foot pedal on the inside of the right footrest. The hydraulic auxiliary brake system requires no adjustment. NOTE: Since this is a rear brake only, it will not be as effective as the all-wheel single lever system. 88
