[. . . ] This manual contains all the main information and the instructions required for normal use and maintenance of your vehicle. For controls and check-ups that cannot be carried out easily with the standard equipment supplied, we advise you to consult our Agents who can assure you of quick and careful servicing.

The other end of the tube must be placed in a receptacle to catch the oil (3). Remove the lid of the brake oil pump and check that the level is correct. Keeping the lever in pulled position, open the breather valve until oil and any air bubbles can be seen coming out of the tube (2). Repeat the operation described above until no more air bubbles can be seen in the oil coming out of the valve. Tighten the valve and remove the tube, being careful not to get oil on the brake pads or the disc. Replace the protection cap, top up the reservoir to maximum level and close it carefully. Remove the front wheel, the brake caliper and the mudguard, then slacken the rod retaining screws on the fork plates and slip out the rods.

If it is necessary to adjust the beam height, act on the screw (1-Fig. [. . . ]
